Music Review: If This is the End by Noah Gundersen

Less than three months ago I wrote a review of Noah Gundersen’s ‘Swim’, the second single from his then-forthcoming album, and in that review I proposed that Gundersen was doing something new in his lyrics. I noted that he was writing from a more contented and hopeful perspective, drastically opposed to the tone and theme of his earlier albums WHITE NOISE and Lover. The review also referenced that newness in Gundersen’s life mirrored that in my own: we had both been married over the past year.
