All photos: Anna RhodyThe songs on Thin Lear’s sophomore albumMany Disappeared are tied to each other not in their locale or their cast of characters, but instead in strange tragedies that have taken place, some many years ago. Current citizens may rest easy; his story-songs are not predictive. Sometimes, New Jersey musician Matt Longo writes songs about a fictional town full of people plagued by life’s dark moments. People die at the hands of nature and their fellow man. Others are of a personal nature. Hope slips through the fingers of anyone who dares reach for it. There is even…
