Two years after Grandaddy’s quiet demise, Jason Lytle returns with Yours Truly, The Commuter. Immaculately crafted pop soundscapes mirror both the dramatic environment of Lytle’s newly-adopted Montana and the vintage twang of Central California farmland that provided the backdrop to all Lytle’s earlier work. Electronic flourishes collide with acoustic guitars and soulful piano parts, recreating Lytle’s signature lo-fi-electro atmospheres. The space-fuzz rocking of “It’s the Weekend†is balanced by the beautiful heartbreak of “Rollin’ Home Alone,†and the opening lines of the first song “Yours Truly, The Commuter” poignantly capture the past few years of Jason Lytle’s life, and his shining future as a solo artist: “I may be limping, but I’m coming homeâ€
“Yours Truly, The Commuter sounds an awful lot like a Grandaddy album— not just another Grandaddy album, though, but a really good one, the best since Sumday. “- Pitchfork
