May 18, 2015It almost ruined my adulthood, caught me off guard. I fell apart like a teenager fighting off all the ghosts I could get my hands on.
"You were right to doubt
Broken since foundations in the structures you were building came undone"
Any song can easily become your own personal high point of the album. For me, it was it's entirety. -
Jan 12, 2015Beyond brilliant in my opinion. A modern gem of emo and a must hear. Despite the odd good but not great track, the majority of the songs encompassed on this album are brilliant, beautiful instrumentation with soul-searching vocals and phenomenal delivery. Absolutely essential listening, just for Life in Drag and Dendron if nothing else.

May 21, 2014In this album the Hotelier from Massachusetts, built a politicized not only drive but a very successful production of delicate tones.
To make things more simply, the "Home, Like Noplace Is There" is an excellent indie rock, the boundaries of punk, and the album "Your Deep Rest" ... great song! -
Apr 23, 2014The Hotelier's latest effort stays true to the emo archetype, and delivers some good production. But unfortunately, overall, this is a pretty bland, underwhelming and mediocre album of the genre. Some tracks do stand out here though, like Housebroken, An Introduction to the Album, and Your Deep Rest.

Sep 3, 2014It’s melodramatic, yes, but the layers to the narrator of Home, Like Noplace Is There are vast. This guy cycles through a series of emotions, each feeling valid, each feeling like an appropriate result of confusion in the wake of a huge loss.

Apr 16, 2014The highs wouldn’t feel so high without the lows here, which is a regular trope of the genre; but as with all tropes, execution trumps invention, and the Hotelier executes exceptionally.

Apr 16, 2014This album is arguably their strongest music to date and they manage to shoot the most cathartic of bullets at you.
