Bruce Springsteen’s 1982 solo album Nebraska has been called a folk album, and that’s true to an extent in both its acoustic setting and, on some of the material, in the construction of the songs. But folk songs in the traditional sense are in part defined by how they travel through culture, typically by being played in person for other people. Nebraska invites no such feeling of communion.

Nebraska is an acoustic triumph, a basic folk album on which Springsteen has stripped his art down to the core. It’s as harrowing as Darkness on the Edge of Town, but more measured. Every small touch speaks volumes: the delicacy of the acoustic guitars, the blurred sting of the electric guitars, the spare, grim images. I work for the state. As The River closed, Springsteen found himself haunted by a highway death. On Nebraska, violent death is his starting point. The title track is an audacious, scary beginning. Singing in a voice borrowed from Guthrie and early Bob Dylan, he takes the part of mass murderer Charlie Starkweather to quietly sing, I can’t say that I’m sorry for the things that we done/At least for a little while, sir, me and her we had us some fun. The music is gentle and soothing, but this is no romanticized outlaw tale à la Guthrie’s Pretty Boy Floyd.

Some of the best song writing you will ever hear and such a great display of Springsteen as a singer-songwriter.

The album was a hit when it was released in September 1982. It reached No. 3 and has become one of the decade’s essential recordings. Over the years, Springsteen has reworked several of the songs in concert with the E Street Band, finally giving them the full-group treatment he originally intended. And a few of the leftover cuts – including drastically different and downcast versions of "Born in the . and "Downbound Train" – ended up on his next album, 1984’s Born in the . Nebraska remains one of the best folk albums of the past 30 years.

This album is maybe Springsteen’s most critically underrated. It consists of very dark songs questioning society, and ends with reason to believe, a somewhat hopeful song that reflects on humanity’s determination to go on. The placement of the song leaves the dark album with a note of hope, in one of the most impressive song placements of all time

It was really the content that dictated the approach, however. Nebraska's ten songs marked a departure for Springsteen, even as they took him farther down a road he'd already been traveling. Gradually, his songs became darker and more pessimistic, and those on Nebraska marked a new low. They also found him branching out into better developed stories.
