The Milk Carton Kids - All The Things That I Did And All The That I Didn't Do (CD)

Released in 2018, All the Things That I Did and All the Things That I Didn’t Do is a quietly devastating record—intimate, thoughtful, and unafraid of stillness. Built largely around acoustic guitars and close-harmony vocals, it feels like a late-night conversation rather than a performance.

The Milk Carton Kids have always drawn from traditional folk forms, but here they strip things back even further. The arrangements are sparse and deliberate, leaving plenty of room for the lyrics to land. Themes of regret, reflection, faith, and emotional distance run throughout, delivered with a calm honesty that makes the songs linger long after they end.

There’s a timeless quality to this album—rooted in classic folk songwriting, but emotionally very present. It’s not a record that demands attention; it earns it, slowly and patiently, rewarding listeners who sit with it rather than skim past.
