Josh Ritter is one of those artists like M. Ward that i can rely on for consistently solid, catchy albums in the indie acoustic/folk/rock vein. Not an exciting artist for me, although "historical conquests of josh ritter" is the exception, but I can always count on consistent quality. "Gatherings" obediently follows this path (with "myrna loy" being a dull, pointless exception). Continuing the thought i started on, Josh Ritter is one of those artists that, while putting out consistently good albums, will never really have a shot at my #1 (since "historical conquests"...). It's too bad too because he deserves more recognition. "Gatherings" will not change your opinion of Josh Ritter, for better or worse.
Saying all that, "Gatherings" is his least-engaging album in ages, possibly since his debut. It's still good but disappointing given he's capable of indie folk rock gems like "animal years" and "historical conquests".
