Ok but you can kind of tell some of these are left-overs., January 30, 2006
This review is from: Red House Painters (Audio CD)
This is RHP's second album released in 1993 and it was made up of songs that didn't go on the Rollercoaster (1st self titled)album. A few of these tracks are kind of weak, the re-recorded version of New Jersey and the 2 covers, which served as a warning for Kozalek's future cover's obsession. But Evil, Evil has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. It sounds like he's whispering the personal yet oddly poetic lyrics in your ear, this is much more than someone reading their diary over acoustic guitar. And the ending howls, its hard for me to listen to them they sound so painful. Also worthwhile is Helicopter, the guitar at the end is moody in just the right way, Uncle Joe and Blindfold. So, no, its not as good as rollercoaster but the high points are just as strong and if you are an RHP fan you should get this.
