All Aboard for the Psychedelic -Jam Ride,
By
This review is from: I'll Follow You (Audio CD)
It is just plain wrong that this appears to be the first review of what will surely be one of this season's finer albums. But in fairness to the masses, it's only been a year since I saw them open for Calexico. Hopefully, word will text-message its way out quickly to the awaiting masses.
Don't let the low-key opener "Marine Life" fool you. This Brooklyn-based band has the chops to grab the listener by whatever and take them for a psychedelic jam-ride that will leave them eager for more. Case in point, the fun-filled romp of "No Dreams" - an engaging guitar-fest would be at home on any of their previous albums - simply sets you up for the sheer delight of the country-tinged "Rue The Blues." Things then slow down and heat up for "Angela," a touching ballad graced by Rachel Cox's charming vocals and the wonderful "Free Radicals Lament." The pace picks up again with the appealing "All The Way Down" setting you up for the superb title cut. "I'll Follow You" - the album's finest song - is easily the best Lindsey Buckingham song he never recorded. "First Frist" is a pleasantly relaxed tune sandwiched between the more boisterous "Best of Luck" and "Alive Among Thieves." Although not as engaging, "Rogue Revelator" is nonetheless salvaged from filler status by Pat Sullivan's earnest vocal and some fine guitar work. Fred Wallace's banjo accents the album's finale, the exquisite "Take My Hands, We're Free" bringing closure to an impressive collection of music that should bring this fine and talented band into greater prominence.

Electric Mushroom Americana,
By Spaceapeman (Lynn, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I'll Follow You (Audio CD)
You just have to look at the cover art of their albums to know what this band is all about. If Neil Young & Crazy Horse and Steeleye Span had a baby, and The Meat Puppets and Fairport Convention had a baby, and those two grew up and had a baby that grew up in the U.S. its name would be Oakley Hall. As the Seatle guy says it might not be Americana, but it might be electric mushroom Americana.
