With documentary-like sound clips, the themes are underlined twice over (there's also a version without them). Thematically, the train metaphor thundering through town, as the bringer of commerce & mode for hopeless teen suicide-- is unstoppable and seemingly an eternal fixture. It's heavy ♯heartlandrock that never veers too far into melodrama-- the LP takes on the serious issues with a genuine understanding.
