Music reviews of Draw the Line [Vinyl]
Music Review: a solid album
Rating: 4 Stars
A very good follow up to life in slow motion and continues the more "pop" style sound when compared with earlier albums. As always this album is of high lyrical quality and the music does not disappoint. Here is a track by track guide:
1.Fugitive-lead single and an upbeat tune with a catchy chorus that shows off the new band in great style
2.Draw the line-title track that has great lyrics and again a great chorus
3.Nemisis-great guitar riff with amazing lyrics and a great delivery by the vocalist and a standout of the album
4.Jackdaw-nice piano riff with great strings accompaniment and again strong performance by david gray
5.Kathleen-great intro with the piano and is a really great song another standout with a nice duet
6.First Chance-another powerful song with a powerful vocal performance with another strong chorus
7.Harder-one of the weaker tracks although still is quite good, lyrics lack a little compared with the high standards shown throughout the album
8.Transformation-really raw and moving piece that is maybe the best song on the album with great lyrics and amazing vocals
9.Stella the Artist-another upbeat track that maybe that does not quite reach the heights of songs such as fugitive but is still a very good listen
10.Breathe-nice lyrics and guitar although another of the weaker tracks of the album as it seems a bit repetitive of the styles of other tracks such as harder and first chance
11.Full Steam-a great duet with annie lennox where the vocals work strongly with each other and another standout track of the album
Overall it is a very good offering and is must have for any David Gray fan and even those uninitiated. A few tracks are bit weaker and the album maybe could have done with one less track maybe breathe or harder being cut. However the album is a very good listen and recommended to all especially the tracks nemesis, kathleen, transformation and full steam.
Description of Draw the Line [Vinyl]
Double vinyl LP pressing. 2009 album from the Irish singer/songwriter. His most captivating work to date, Draw The Line is the rich, warm, organic sound of David Gray reborn and starts a new chapter in the storytelling for which he is known. Recorded in London, and produced by the artist himself, David Gray's voice and songwriting are as distinct as ever on the release, showcasing the intensity with which he performs. Ripe with melancholic beauty, key tracks on the album include the glorious sublimely layered 'Fugitive,' the album's lead single, the pensive 'Draw the Line' and the emotive composition 'Nemesis.' Also featured on the album are two duets not to be missed with Jolie Holland and Annie Lennox.David Gray has come full circle back to his roots on his latest release, Draw the Line, which is significant given the fact that he could have easily succumb to the many distractions of success. Long-time fans of David Gray who gravitated to his earlier releases, including A Century Ends, Flesh, and Sell, Sell, Sell, will be happy to know he has not wandered far from the musical path he set out on nearly 20 years ago. The result is a humble album punctuated by his gritty baritone, layered acoustics, and a sobering thrush that comes across as an amped-up middle-aged confession half the time, and a sweet lullaby the rest.
After the overwhelming success he garnered from 2000?s White Ladder, followed by an introspective period that included more down tempo and ethereal albums, Gray returns with a bit of idyllic hope delivered with his own brand of cynicism and irony. He is full of confidence following a long period where he was stuck in the ?shock of success? that descended on him with the ubiquitous accolades and critical acclaim of White Ladder. Now liberated from that period that tested his personal demons, David Gray feels a new presence and sense of purpose as he reflects and bears his musical soul to us all, more content than ever with his life and his music. Hear it all in the 14 minute interview, and enjoy.
