Reviews of Sam's newest album (Love at the End of the World) accuse him of being too bleak. While I don't wholly disagree with this assessment, it is totally without merit for them to say that he has grown cynical. I saw him perform a couple of weeks ago, and I would say that his strongest connection with the crowd came when he performed Hard Road. He made all of us believe these words, and there was no doubting that he still believed them too.
