SOMEWHERE ELSE

Vinyl LP pressing. 2014 album from the Alt-Country singer/songwriter. Two years after the critical success of her breakout second album, Indestructible Machine, Lydia Loveless emerges from the trenches of hometown Columbus, OH with the gloves off and brimming with confidence. While her previous album was described as Hillbilly Punk with a Honky Tonk heart (Uncut), this one can't be so quickly shoe-horned into neat categorical cubbyholes. No, things are different this time around Loveless and her band have collectively dismissed the genre blinders and sonic boundaries that come from playing it from a safe, familiar place. Writing from this new-found place of conviction, Lydia crafted 10 songs that are stark in their honesty, self-examination, and openness.
