"This Town Is Only Going To Break Your Heart" is a gutsy collection of songs which pull together many of Jason's literary and musical influences. It's an album about the towns we love, the towns that shape who we are, and about kids who grow up to have kids of their own.

"While This Town isn’t a true concept album, many of the 11 songs are set in dead-end factory towns, the types of places where, as he sings in When You’re Lonesome, ” . . .all the high school bullies become small-town cops.” Goss approaches his subjects with a sharp eye for detail, creating compelling characters who have been forced to come to grips with their baggage as they face the challenges of adulthood. This is most evident on the album’s centerpiece, Set Me Free, a breathless, five-minute portrait of blue-collar desperation that could have come straight from Bruce Springsteen’s Nebraska." — Popdose
