Picture
There is no shortage of rock bands from California. There is a shortage of bands from anywhere that bare the substance and character borne by Augustana. "Can't Love, Can't Hurt" is lyrically heavy. This is a band that writes with a remarkable passion, and there is such gravity to their work. Lead vocalist, Dan Layus, delivers a powerful yet jaded sound. One would not need to read an article about him to know a lot about his past, it all comes out in the music. This album is about being consumed by feelings of loss and longing. There is a deep seeded theme of disdain throughout this work as well; disdain for a world that would allow one to feel this way, and also for people who somehow never turn out to live up to your expectations.
