The Appalachian, old-timey ache in her creaky voice combines powerfully with the sweetness and honesty imparted by her affecting timbre on this twisted, country-dada album--simultaneously historical, modern, and timeless. Irwin can sound otherworldly, like the Lord's minion or a ghost (\"Hex\"); like a vulnerable child or prodigal daughter (\"The Only Hell My Momma Ever Raised\"); a sexy siren or broken-hearted woman (\"Swan Dive\"). She's also a gifted lyricist. \"Cry Our Little Eyes Out\" has fancy-fine acoustic guitar tweedles and twists accompanied by arresting lyrics: \"All those who weep bitter tears \/ And pray to God to calm their fears \/ Falling down from a clear blue sky \/ Angels bear their wings to dry your eyes.\" These 12 songs (including five covers by Elvis Presley, the Carter Family, Roger Miller, Pee Wee King, and Johnny Paycheck), are mesmerizing. --Jillian Steinberger\n\nProduct Description\n\nCatherine Irwin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 790377011920\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0790377011920\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e 70119\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e audioCD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46807859298563,"sku":"Y7-F4PB-QRH4","price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/41-nKun4W-L.jpg?v=1746720526","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/cut-yourself-a-switch","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
