Music reviews of Faces & Names

Music Review: He still has "Soul".
Rating: 4 Stars

I always liked Soul Asylum, but the only reason I got this is because I found it for a few bucks. What a score. True, there's nothing on this disc that actually rocks, but I really like this new sound, and think Dave sounds as good as ever. I liken "Faces And Names" to the first solo albums from Chris Robinson and Chris Cornell, not as great as their former bands, but still very good, and a must for the real fans. "Teach Me To Breathe" must have been the single from this, but I also like "Feel The Need", "Someday Love", and honestly the whole thing is good. Sorry to see this is currently out of print, and no other news from Dave. If you find it, grab it.

Description of Faces & Names

Solo debut from Dave Pirner the Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter for Soul Asylum. Featuring the first single 'Never Recover'. The album was produced by Trina Shoemaker (Sheryl Crow) at Daniel Lanois Kingsway studios in New Orleans. 2002.
Like H?sker D? and the Replacements, Soul Asylum started out as a high-voltage Minneapolis punk band in 1981. By the time they arrived at mainstream success 11 years later they had transformed into simple blue-collar rockers in the mold of Pearl Jam and Tom Petty. This solo album accompanies frontman Dave Pirner's latest metamorphosis as a rough-and-tumble lounge singer. He dips into sublime smooth-jazz grooves on "364," pays elated tribute to Al Green on the soulful "Feel the Need," and slips into Dusty Springfield territory on the lush "Start Treating People Right," which features a simple piano melody that would not sound entirely out of place on Norah Jones's record. The only nod to his rock & roll past is the tellingly titled "Much Too Easy," which starts out with a blast of distortion before dissolving into a muted electronic groove. Now more than ever, the verses of Soul Asylum's biggest hit seem apt: "Runaway train, never going back..." --Aidin Vaziri
