Over the past few years the Colorado based musician Madeline Johnston aka MIDWIFE has made some of our favorite records. "No Depression In Heaven" is her 4th album. Madeline is a true master of minimal composition with songs that are mostly just guitar & voice with some occasional drum boxes & synth. Her songs are filled with longing & sadness for people & things that disappear as we live our lives. Songs like "Vanessa", an ode to her dying van or "Killdozer", a song about Marvin Heemeyer getting revenge on the town of Granby, CO. by destroying as much of it with his suped-up bulldozer before committing suicide. There's a great version of the Roland S. Howard song "Autoluminescent" which she really makes her own here. Another amazing album from MIDWIFE. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.
