Past Worn Searching is the debut studio album by American indie rock band Rainer Maria, released in 1997. [3] [4]
The Wisconsin State Journal thought that "plaintive ballads like 'Viva Anger, Viva Hate' and 'Sickbed' are impressively moody, opening with soothing sounds before building to shattering crescendos." [1]
In 2006, The New York Times wrote that the album "captures the slightly chaotic sound of a band that was willfully out of place: the trio was often the wimpiest act at Midwestern punk and hardcore concerts." [5]
