Oh Quiet World is a prayer for the world written during the time when everything stood still a while. The whole album plays like a prayer, beginning with the call to “wake up in the early light,” and ending with the word, “amen.”
Summer hatch on the Deschutes as it flows
through town: hordes of six-pack abs, pasties,
and thongs astride monster floaties; swarms, dizzy
on tokes and beer, adrift in garish vinyl lounges.
