Where the Wild Things Go by Tom Mackell

I really liked Tom Mackell’s “Where the Wild Things Go” its a captivating alt-country tune that delves into the depths of regret and longing. With its infectious rhythm guitar and a soaring lead guitar lick, the song creates a sonic backdrop that perfectly complements the introspective lyrics. The uplifting tone of the song really keeps you hooked with the deeper lyrics.

Mackell’s voice, devoid of a traditional country twang, resonates with raw emotion as he explores themes of escape and unfulfilled potential. The juxtaposition of a catchy hook and poignant lyrics adds to the song’s allure, drawing listeners in with its infectious melody while challenging them to contemplate their own lives.

“Where the Wild Things Go” is a testament to Mackell’s songwriting prowess, offering a poignant and relatable exploration of the human condition. It’s catchy and moves well. He does a good job not playing into the conventions of modern, country music.
