After the death of her mother and the implosion of a 'tumultuous' relationship, the country-rock queen sounds more world-weary than ever. She deals with her losses most movingly on the lower-key numbers 'Fancy Funeral', 'Mama You Sweet', and 'Everything Has Changed'. Set to big guitars and thumping drums, her trademark drawl and cracked vocals can sound mannered, though it's hard to begrudge her the bitter howl of 'Come On' (as in 'You didn't even make me ... come on'). Often harrowing, although Williams's emotional odyssey finds resolution on the title track.
