Music reviews of Baby I'm Bored
Music Review: Simply Magnificent
Rating: 5 Stars
I have been a Lemonheads fan since the 90's when It's Ashame About Ray came out. After a long hiatus I discovered Evan's Solo disc and bought it hoping for some of the same magic that had drawn me in to the Lemonheads - what I got was a delightful surprise. Not only is this album excellent, but it pushes listeners into different genre's of music. Heavily country influenced, Dando writes songs that are crafted in his usual style, and played on an acoustic guitar.
Fans of the Lemonheads looking for punk rock will be disappointed, but any fan of good music will certainly want to hear this album. I am not a country fan but I love this album. You should also check out his Live at the Brattle album for a beautiful solo concert and of course the self titled Lemonheads return.
Description of Baby I'm Bored
Japanese edition of the former Lemonheads frontman's debut solo album features 14 tracks including two bonus tracks, 'Shots Is Fired' with Liv & 'Tongue Tied' (1999). Imperial. 2003.In his thirties and no longer the poster boy of the post-grunge generation, Evan Dando returns a wiser and seemingly chastened man on Baby I'm Bored, his first studio album since the Lemonheads' 1996 finale, Car Button Cloth. His well documented difficulties behind him, it's heartening that Dando has returned with a set of genuinely lovely songs. Visceral, vital, and yearning, Baby I'm Bored boasts a wealth of gems. The opener, "Repeat," is vulnerable yet quietly resolute; "It Looks Like You" is as spectral and plangent as the Byrds; "Hard Drive" rehabilitates that widely despised genre, the list song. "The Same Thing," on the other hand, hints at mental turmoil ("I can't believe how far I slipped"), while "Why Do You Do This to Yourself?" berates a kamikaze party animal over the most muted! of acoustic strums. There is resolution in "All My Life," which gratefully delineates newer, sounder perspectives ("All my life I thought I needed the things I didn't need at all"), while the giddy, bucolic closer, "In the Grass All Wine Colored," is as pristine and pure as a baby's conscience. Members of Calexico, Giant Sand, Come, and Spacehog chip in support, but the focus is fully on Dando, an artist reborn, restored, and far from bored. --Ian Gittins
