Nashville, TN based singer-songwriter Joe Bachman has just released his latest single titled "A Soldier's Memoir (PTSD Song)". The poignant ballad is a country laced tune that has simple structured country melodies layered upon riveting lyricism that touches upon the profound subject of a loved one fighting overseas and succumbing to the effects of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and witnessing the relentless and disturbing images that soldiers are exposed to while fighting in Iraq or Afghanistan. It's not too often that I come across songs with a strong social message attached to them, but this one in particular really hit close to home as it touches upon a harrowing issue for families who are eager to have their loved one come home, only to come back feeling much different than before and constantly replaying the carnage inside their head that they've witnessed during their time away. A terrific track that is definitely deserving of your listening time.
