John Moreland’s lyrically driven songs stand head and shoulders above most others in the Americana landscape. In The Throes features 10 songs specifically chosen for the weight of their lyrics. Tracks like “No One Gives A Damn About Songs Anymore”, “Blacklist” and “Under Your Spell” showcase Moreland’s sensitivity and attention to detail when constructing a song and have thrust him into the forefront of every conversation about up and coming songwriters. In The Throes has garnered praise from critics and fans alike from across the country, with many people naming it one of the top albums of 2013. Moreland is currently touring the country in support of the album as well as previewing material from his upcoming Thirty Tigers release, due this Spring.
“Take a good, working rock and roll musician, strip him down to the basics, give him an acoustic guitar and say, ‘tell me what life’s taught you so far, seriously’ and in this perfect world you would get John Moreland “ – Rick Reilly – No Depression
“With the soul of a poet and the look of a Sons of Anarchy extra, Tulsa’s John Moreland has been gifted the sort of gravely, booming voice that does Bruce Springsteen proud and a similar understanding of the universal human experience. It’s made for some fantastic records — both as a solo artist and with his dissolved Black Gold Band — and In the Throes is his best yet.” – Joshua Boydston – Oklahoma Gazette
“In the Throes is immersive. The commitment and engagement are so strong, at times it feels like the songs are coming out of you, not John. Moreland puts every drop of blood on the page and every tear in the song. This, my friends, is what songs are for. “ – Farce the Music
