The album's instrumental textures and lyrical concerns (see, especially, "Wave of Love") are miles away from most contemporary music, let alone "cool" contemporary music. But more often than not, Kilgour crafts these anachronisms into artifacts of wistful nostalgia. With so many indie bands shooting for far-reaching and "ambitious" sounds, it's easy for something as unassuming as The Far Now to fall through the cracks. This is not revelatory music, nor does it seek to be. Instead, The Far Now evokes a kind of humble ease seldom heard these days, and rarely executed this well.
