• Eric Church - The Outsiders - Where the Dark Meets the Light

    On Eric's fourth release, he mixes up not only the personalities of the songs but also the musical aspects, throwing in rock, rap/spoken word and a touch of blues. Some fans will love the mix. Others won't because each song doesn't line up like precise little toy soldiers.
