Young and producer Daniel Lanois (Le Noise, get it?) bring this solo Neil + effects album – part (very) electric, part acoustic – to life with some damned fine songs and muscular playing and singing. Sorry to play the part of the geezer reviewing the even-more-geezer rock star’s album, but holy shit, there are some extraordinarily vital and assertive songs, playing, and singing here. There’s also on YouTube a lush, mostly B&W, video that goes with this album. 1. Power-chording and echoed vocals give way eventually to feedback 2. One of the noisier love ballads (non-power ballad category) you will hear 3. Another non-pretty ballad, with some unexpected melodic turns 4. Quieter, self-referential song about the ravages of war on the families of those who fight them 5. Resigned statement of fact – it’s an angry world 6. Personal history of travel, fame, drugs used, and perseverance 7. Throwback folky anthem 8. Self-accusatory “When will I learn to give back” over simple tune | ||
