Nebraska arrived at a time when the music industry was chasing bigger sounds and brighter production, but Springsteen went the other way. The album’s quiet power came from its restraint. Drawing on the folk traditions of Woody Guthrie and the fatalistic laments of Hank Williams, Nebraska stripped the myth of the American dream down to its bones. These were stories of debt, violence and fragile hope — told not with anger, but with empathy. It was a portrait of a country running out of road, sung by a man searching for redemption amid the wreckage.
