As if the overwhelming emotions and cathartic release of the full-length
were not enough,
's acoustic reworking
should have fans of the late
reaching for the tissue box once again. Just five tracks long, the EP takes some of the best moments on
and, as the title suggests, strips them of the studio bells and whistles, revealing a more bare-bones approach that centers on
's huge voice and passionate delivery. Raw and vulnerable, these selections hit a nerve similar to
'
set or
's live
. The sparse "Soul Song" devastates like a eulogy, just as the urgent "Sometimes" hits so hard one might forget it's acoustic. Meanwhile, "The Syndrome (Stripped - DEMO)" is the roughest around the edges, ending the EP on its most exposed note. Curious listeners should still start with the LP that was released in 2020, but once that's been digested,
serves as an extra potent dose of mournful celebration of a voice gone too soon. ~ Neil Z. Yeung
