Music reviews of Nights Behind the Tree Line

Music Review: Dark Spoken Word
Rating: 5 Stars

I love Henry Rollins Spoken Word shows...I always try to check them out when he is in town. Rollins is one of the most well-educated, well spoken celebrities I know of. However, this CD is the direct opposite of his live shows.

Dark -- Intense -- Emotional -- Shocking

These are the words that best describe this album. There is very little humor here, and it might put you in a bad mood. I have listened to this hundreds of times in my car, because the intensity of his stories and statements makes it impossible to understand it upon one listen. I compare it to reading a philosophy book.

Some tracks include a story about a friend of his named Maya who he's known for a while who tried to kill herself a few times, was a drug addict, and sold her body on the streets. It includes a story Maya told him about a girl she helped to commit suicide. "She washed down the pills with some milk. Maya said it helps you die better. The girl choked on her own vomit and died. Maya watched." This is what I mean - intense and dark.

There's also another story about a girl he was friends with for a while and then they became close one summer. He's returning home from a road trip to see her and come to find out, the day before he arrived, she died in a car accident.

Like I said...there's some humor, such as the segment about visiting the city of Los Angeles, the pollution, and the racism as well. However, most people I've played this to did not like it. You have to be a certain breed of human to appreciate this.
