Achilles Heel
Pedro The Lion's masterpiece and final album is once again available on vinyl and remastered by TW Walsh. After the huge crossover success of 2002's <i>Control</i>, it was only a matter of time before David Bazan and company would fully realize their swan song. Beautifully achieved, <i>Achilles' Heel</i> is crafted as a scathing glance into the crosshairs of the American dream, a heartbreaking sketch of husbandhood and ultimately an exploration of faith as told through eleven perfectly textured vignettes. As sonically mature as it is emotionally complex, <i>Achilles' Heel</i> is imbued with hopeful sadness.
