Music reviews of Vetiver
Music Review: Folkie-intellectual-heartfelt-space-out music
Rating: 3 Stars
Cabic's writing is thoughtful, intelligent, of a literate bent and displays somewhat of a European sensibility here, for a folkie. His guitar playing is meticulous, and the recording is crisp without being sterile. One criticism is that I can hear the production decisions made to create a "consistent" album. His strong songs, like "Amerilie" and "Farther On," he stripped somewhat of their negativity and moodiness, adding harp on the former to make it less dramatic, in my opinion. The weaker songs on the album, such as "Amour Fou" and "Los Pajaros" he made stronger by adding Banhardt's backing vocals, but these skate by on feel rather than on their musical merit.
"Arboretum" is the strongest song for him vocally, strangely abundant as he sings "artfully planted with shrubs" giving the song an inexplicable mood of expansion and resignation at the same time.
"On a Nerve," which is almost a bit menacing in its intensity and perhaps references H.G. Wells, showcases strong ensemble scoring. "Without a Song" is simple and effectively touching. Cabic is a capable songwriter and when he becomes new and experimental, it's quite refreshing. I enjoy the blend of folk- based music with different kinds of experimentation here.
