It has been said, by many wise individuals, that one often treasures much more strongly that for which one has had to work very hard. Three years in the making, Worth Imagining certainly qualifies. The Printing Press’ sophomore album, it goes much further than their first, Exhibit A, in musically and lyrically exploring spaces to which the band had not previously traveled. From the first track, through “I Thought I Died”, from which the title is sneakily educed, through the pensive and heartfelt “Song For Saving,” Worth Imagining eschews genres and refuses to be pigeon-holed.
The addition of James and Matt to the band has allowed The Printing Press to expand their songwriting repertoire, and Worth Imagining demonstrates the value that both new members bring to the table.
All told, this album plays to the band’s strengths, and has something for everyone: old or young, big or small, green…or red.
