Twenty years into the band’s career, Richmond Fontaine’s Willy Vlautin is calling it quits to write more novels, but that’s what he’s been doing all along. Everything you need in a good story is here on this standout from their swan song: a rich and relatable tragic character, enough of a storyline to move the song but not too much to wrap things up too neatly, a world that doesn’t care, and a new assertion of that old truth that you can’t go home again.
