Suna tsammani tsammani daga farawa a cikin gine-gine koyarwa na girmama track "Bad Times," admitting, fiye da karami piano da har da shekaru biyu na sobriety: "I san cewa shi ba ne mai kyau, amma ina ba da matsala da lokaci."

"I wani abu cewa za a kammala dukan matsaloli tare da matsaloli, kuma sa'an nan za a iya zama da kyau," Kenney laughs. "Drinking ya ƙara dukkan matsalolin da na kasance, amma shi ne kawai ƙarfi na iceberg; sauke ya sa dukkan matsalolinku mai sauki amma ba ya ƙara dukkan su."

Kenney's subsequent investigations into the root causes of their interpersonal dramas obscured nearly as much as they revealed, encouraging acceptance but also emphasizing the frequently frustrating uncertainty and temporality of things. From Nowhere occupies that liminal and trepidatious time when one is compelled to move but unsure where they might be headed. The driving "Evening Dream" has all the hallmarks of a post-summer come-down as Kenney reminisces about the nebulous feelings of flings: "Bathing in the pale green light, no thought of what goes on outside," they sing. "No thought of what it all might mean, it doesn’t have to meet a thing." On the darker sounding "Signs of Life," they address an unbearable and obscure fissure; with the title track, they recall a loss of innocence in idyllic rural Nova Scotia, mixing sun-kissed organ with cryptic, unsettling choruses.

With the stark and devastating pairing of "Honey Come Home" and "Self Doubt," Kenney makes it clear that there's no glory or revelation in sitting with your feelings. While the former distills the loneliness and alienation of a partner's absence, the latter finds Kenney struggling with the crippling second-guessing that can accompany certain acute kinds of clarity as they barely raise their voice above a whisper in what sounds like the saddest honky-tonk on Earth. Through the hazy atmospheres of "That's Not Me," they conjure a slow motion crawl through a dim club and question their identity. And the similarly unhurried "With You" delivers a crushing post-mortem about a relationship that, despite its sweetness, just didn't work.

From Nowhere's intimate subject matter was handled with deft hands by some of Keney's nearest and dearest collaborators—Joel Plaskett, Rose Cousins, Victoria Cameron, Siobhan Martin, and Jordan Murphy—and recorded, mixed, and engineered by Thomas Stajcer at Plaskett's Fang Studios in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

In contrast to its heavy predecessors, the airy "Love You Better" offers a featherweight finale to From Nowhere; in earthy reverie, Kenney acknowledges their past failures and that they're not always going to get it right, but resolves to do the only thing they can: keep trying. "Staring at the ceiling, trying to find the meaning," they sing over eddying acoustic guitar. "Put it all together; I will love you better."
