Thanksgiving - The River

Review by Allen Roh

The River, the latest album by Thanksgiving, is a soulful and introspective collection of songs that showcases the band's versatility and emotional depth. From the hauntingly beautiful opener "Ghosts" to the rousing closer "Wildfire", the album takes the listener on a journey through love, loss, and self-discovery.

The standout track, "The River", is a poignant ballad that captures the essence of the album's themes. With its gentle acoustic guitar and heartfelt lyrics, the song is a testament to the power of vulnerability and the importance of staying true to oneself.

Thanksgiving's musicianship is also on full display throughout the album. The lush arrangements and intricate instrumentation create a rich tapestry of sound that is both intricate and accessible. The band's ability to blend genres and styles is particularly impressive, as they seamlessly transition from folk to indie rock to Americana and back again.

Summary by Allen Roh

The River is a testament to Thanksgiving's talent and vision as a band. It is a deeply personal and emotionally resonant album that will leave a lasting impression on anyone who listens to it. Highly recommended for fans of indie folk and Americana.
