Free Music Notes for Roses & Clover
Free Music Review: Their Best Yet
Hit: 5 Stars
If you've never heard ALO, this album is a good place to start. Whenever people ask me to describe the Animal Liberation Orchestra I inevitably choose from a list of other bands where they've drawn their influence, be it The Band, Paul Simon, their friend Jack Johnson, the Grateful Dead... but even a mash-up by all these artists won't describe their funky, mellow sound. But this album does a great job of showcasing their musical chops, songwriting abilities, and occasionally silly lyrics.
To date ALO have recorded four albums, but only 2 that could be considered "major" albums (Fly Between Falls Fly Between Fallsand this one, Roses and Clover). I love Fly Between Falls, but this offering is head and shoulders above FBF. Roses and Clover is well produced, well recorded, and the fact that the album was createdin a single month rather than drawn out of multiple sessions comes through loud and clear -- a cohesive and consistent sound from start to finish.
I highly recommend this album!
Roses & Clover Poster
ALO may be describing the inspiration for their release Roses & Clover however, it best summarizes the band's newfound approach to their music. For a band accustomed to performing songs live for years, crafting and shaping hundreds of times over before entering the studio, the age-old process of recording an album first was, well... liberating.
On Roses & Clover, ALO explored new methods of collaborating, finding a richer, more mature sound built on their individual songwriting strengths. Recorded in a turn-of-the-century barn in the hills overlooking colonial Santa Barbara, the four musicians holed themselves up for two weeks with little more than their favorite instruments and 40 songs in various stages - 80% of which had never been performed on stage.
