Music Reviews of New Skin for the Old CeremonyMusic Review: New Skin for the Old Ceremony Rating: 5 Stars
New Skin for the Old Ceremony is grand record from Cohen. Once more Cohen showcases his immense talent with tracks such as Chelsea Hotel and Who By Fire. Cohen's lyrics are filled with immense intelligence, wit and sometimes a quirky sense of humour. The cover is very beautifull and depicts the spiritual union of the male and female principle. For some reason they made a cheap book-let and that is such a shame for such a wonderful recording.
Music Review: Pretty Good Rating: 4 Stars
I have had Cohens first three albums for several years and enjoy them profusely. The small stories he tells range from desolation, sardonic views of the world, to drunken hysteria. The album title shows that a lot of the songs are about love and this is true. This collection is not the strongest prose of Cohens but there are some very poppy and uplifting songs.
Music Review: Warm and entertaining album Rating: 4 Stars
As for as Leonard Cohen albums go, this one will most likely not disappoint. The songs seem a bit more put together and produced than his past efforts, but they are pretty creative and entertaining all the same. I'm not very in to Cohen, but I'm sure any Cohen fan that does not yet have this album will be very pleased with it.
Music Review: Truly amazing work Rating: 5 Stars
Cohen is able to craft such wonderful songs that are just unreveled by anything else. This man is a true visionary and poet.
