Posted On November 20, 2023

All That Was East Is West of Me Now is by turns noisy and meditative, sprawling and hypnotic. Easily Glen Hansard’s most rock record since Burn the Maps-era The Frames. The title, which Hansard says stems from the “sudden realization that there’s more behind than ahead,” suggests a survey from a great height, taking in terrain traveled and that which is still to be discovered. While the passage of time may be a central theme, the narrative of the album’s eight tracks focus more on the promise for the future than thoughts of regret or nostalgia.
All That Was East Is West of Me Now is available now.
