Such a good album! I've played this for friends who like all different types of music, and everyone has loved this, regardless of their musical tastes.

This review is from: Broken (& Other Rogue States) (Dig) (Audio CD)

Luke Doucet has a feeling in his voice that borders on melancholy. It's true. However, the record Broken (And Other Rogue States) doesn't dwell on the hurt. It establishes the feel and lets you decide how to handle the pain.

Doucet can write lyrics, that there is no denying. Wallow for example is a perfect balance of metaphor, and realism. The guitar in Wallow is also amazing and Doucet's voice is perfect for this type of CD.

The Albim isn't perfect. There are a few songs that don't stand up to my high expectations that songs such as Wallow and Vladivostok have earned. Some tunes just don't seem to go with the lyrics.

I do reccomend you buy the cd. Performers, writers and musicians like Doucet deserve our hard earned dollars. In an age of Spears, and Fall Out Boy, true music needs our help and deserves a place in our heart.
