It's been a couple of weeks, and we're right around the corner from announcing pre-order info, and all the details on what you'll get (and when you'll get it) if you buy direct, so I figured it's time to drop another one of these preview tunes.

This time it's the title track, and opening number "From The Dark". It's a pretty stripped-down piece, one half of a pair that bookends the record..no drums, no bass...just me making the rounds on acoustic guitar, piano, and harmonica, while my regular accomplice Kenny Wright adds some percussion flourishes, and Michael Saint-Leon mans the board.

One of the more subdued songs in the batch, and certainly not a bombastic lead-off, but I wasn't going for bombast, and this just seemed best suited to set the tone thematically for what would come after.
