"Farewell Friend's The Silent Years is a melodic collage of vivid musicality that is taken in through the ears but felt right in the heart. The album expands on the group's introspective and contemplative lyricism encapsulating the depth of human emotion. Tom Troyer's voice is an instrument that soars to new heights on the wings of exemplary musicianship demonstrating that Farewell Friend is a group to keep on your radar."
