Performance: Sonics: |
A very personal album.
While this may be great for fans or poets, it is torture for the rest. I openly admit to not engaging with the intellect of this disc, because I was instantly put off by its lack of .. umm... everything else.
The songs are boring (musically). They may have a message, but when it's 1 singer and one guitar with 3 chords for 10 minutes, I find it hard to engage.
The performance of the guitar is irrelevant (introverted strumming). The vocal performance is, as expected, great. But as there's nothing to interact with, it will only fascinate those who consider themselves to be fans anyway.
The sound gains nothing from a multichannel mix or from greater dynamic range. It's an acoustic set through rock n' roll miking. Not at all interesting.
This release may be interesting on DVD-V. On SACD, it is not.
