Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
With his quavering falsetto framed by banjo, fiddle, and harmonica, St. Thomas seems to find his musical home in the mythic realm of Neil Young's After the Gold Rush. Yet the luminously innocent songcraft of Norway's Thomas Hansen never sounds dated and rarely derivative. His playfully creative spirit renders each song a revelation, from the psychedelic swirl of "Oh I Have Left the Ground" to the country-tinged waltz (with Nordic yodel) of "She Married a Cowboy" to the spaghetti-Western twang of "Goodbye Emily Lang" (in homage to Hansen's former band) to the echoes of Elliott Smith on the enigmatic "Cornerman" and primal "Into the Forest." With his first release beyond his homeland, St. Thomas should fare well with fans of indie Americana and others who prize fresh artistry over slick production. --Don McLeese

5.0 out of 5 stars run to the store, December 28, 2002
By jo van boxem (Belgium (that's Europe...)) - See all my reviews
I just happened to download the song "strangers out of blue", and I was so impressed that i ran to the music store immediately.It was long ago that a song so caught me that I just wanted to hear it again and again. So yes, I bought the album for this one song, but it hasn't been out of my cdplayer since, and why couldn't I have discovered it earlier....
Yes, of course his voice resembles Neil Young, and at first the songs remind you of Harvest indeed. There are worse influences, and after listening to it once or twice and carefully, you will discover an original and authentic artist. This is breakable music, sad and yet funny. My album of the year, and I can't wait for him to perform in Belgium.

4.0 out of 5 stars Death Comes as the Last, December 20, 2007
By John P. Marsh (North Las Vegas) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Thomas Hansen died recently due to complications with prescription drugs, so I read. This folkie offering is really nice, and it's sad that he has passed. Pick up a copy while you can, well worth repeat, melancholic listening. This CD is often referred to as 'confederate music,' because of the use of the banjo.

5.0 out of 5 stars St. Thomas - I'm Coming Home, May 5, 2005
St. Thomas' debut album is a must have. Sounding a bit like the Norwegian version of Neil Young, St. Thomas fuses folk, country and a bit of yodeling to produce a unique sound. This album may take a few listens to fully appreciate, but it will be well worthwhile.
