The Weight of These Wings

It's tempting to view <i>The Weight of These Wings</i> as Lambert's "divorce album" following her split from Blake Shelton, and songs like the acoustic, regret-laden "Pushin' Time" certainly lend credence to that notion. But this ambitious, double-length LP illustrates the full range of her talents. A roadhouse-rockin' cover of Danny O'Keefe's 1971 tune "Covered Wagon", the throbbing indie-pop beat of "Six Degrees of Separation" and the funky slow-burn of "Pink Sunglasses" only hint at the wide terrain traversed here.
