Shouse's "Upon Looking Back" sounds more like a mission statement than a comeback. We put a lot of thought and care into this project, and it makes us think and helps us move forward. The sound is a mix of technical skill and real feeling. From the start, it's clear that this was made for a reason.His nine instrumental pieces make a sound that is both very big and very personal. Each piece is like a chapter, and the different styles and influences come together to make a journey that never ends. The production is good, but not too far away, so you can see everything.
The level of musicianship on display is what really makes this release stand out. Tony MacAlpine plays on the song adding tastefulness to it. This is a place where some of the best guitarists in the world can meet. Shouse not only comes back, but they also remind us why we were waiting in the first place.
