Houston Jonhson’s latest release, “Silhouette” details the still-fresh pain of lost love, framed by a brooding, cinematic heavy-rock backdrop. The images of fog, mountains, a smoking gun, and an old hound crying together create a world that is both physical and psychological. The main character of “Silhouette on a broken mind” is a powerful symbol of memories that won’t go away. Jonhson evokes the isolation of recalling something you can’t get back, but the dense instrumentation gives that longing a darker tinge.
