dark and beautiful,
By
This review is from: Breakin Down (Audio CD)
Gerald Collier is simply a fantastic singer-songwriter, and any new album is more than welcome. It's been about five years I think, and Breakin' Down doesn't disappoint. Honest and emotional, this is country-rock for people who really care about music and appreciate great songwriting and performances.

The most underrated songwriter in the world,
This review is from: Breakin Down (Audio CD)
I'm not sure when people are going to finally discover the genius of Gerald Collier. He is a contemporary songwriter with no match. I think people too often peg him as Alt-Country without realising that the strongest influence that come through in his songs are Elton John and John Lennon.His lyrics are just as brutally honest as they get. Very disturbing actually. Maybe this is another reason why people don't get him. A line like, "I was up thinking to myself last night/ how much better I'd be if I'd have shot her on sight/ how much warmer I'd be between my sheets/ with the blood of her body washed all over me", really seperates itself from your typical singer-songwriter fare. I think this album is fantastic. Probably his best work to date. Discover him now while there's still time to appreciate this masterful songwriter. |
