has reviewed about 300 albums. Yet, hundreds—if not thousands—of albums have slipped through the cracks. This December, we’re delighted to launch a new series called, in which our core team of critics reviews some of their favorite records we may have missed the first time around, looking back at some of the best overlooked releases of 2019.
Philip B. Price excels at delving deep into the psyches of the people in his songs and emerging with vivid, often dreamlike images brimming with complex emotions. He’s been doing it for 15 years at the helm of Winterpills, the Northampton, Mass., chamber-pop group that has released six full-length albums and an EP since 2005.
The weight of memory is a recurring theme. On “The Liar,” Price’s narrator collects someone’s ashes and scatters the letters they left behind, while on the terse, tumultuous “Severed,” he demands to know, “Who were you, whose son?” Toward the end of the album, on the quietly kind title track, Price offers a refuge, a place to lay down the pain, regrets and secrets that accumulate over a lifetime.
