Free Music Review: Wonderful music in a fantastic package
Hit: 5 Stars

This is one of my all-time favourite Bob Mould albums. I love his music, and this is probably one of his finest song collections. To me, the best word to describe the songs here would be "bare", not in a musical sense, but in terms of emotional content. Everytime I listen to this album, I get the feeling that he's in the room with me, telling me stories about his life, being completely honest and vulnerable. If you're into this confessional style of songwriting, it doesn't get much better than this.
As for the package itself, it's, in a word, gorgeous. A faux leather covered box, a little larger than the usual CD jewel box, which, when opened, exposes a bright yellow felt cloth. Opening this cloth, you'll find the two CDs, each in a black paper envelope, a lyrics folder (including the lyrics to all tracks on both CDs)and several pictures printed in rice paper. These are arranged in a few different sets: there are two pictures of Mr. Mould (one is the first thing you'll see when you open the felt cloth and the other is the last), reproductions of the standard edition art, including techinical details, a set of pics which seem to represent his relation with music and finally some sculptures. I love elaborate packagings, and have some Special, Limited and Deluxe editions of albums I like, but this is one of the best I've ever seen. It's obviously been carefully and lovingly conceived and assembled, and the final result is a joy to see, same as to listen to. So, if you're a Bob Mould fan, this version of the album is definitely the one to get. In fact, even if you're not, it still deserves serious consideration. Stellar music in stellar packaging is not that easy to come by nowadays, and this one seriously delivers.

Body of Song (Deluxe Version) (Bonus CD) Poster

Japanese pressing features the original 12 tracks plus a bonus track TBA. Cooking. 2005.
Loudly hailed as the former Minnesotan's return to rock form since 2002's flawed but interesting electronic outing Modulate, Body of Song, is a surprisingly enjoyable record that mixes and matches swaths of sound from the last twenty years of the burly dude's career. As a solo artist, his songs tend to be anthemettes loaded with deep personal feelings and sung in that trademark roller coaster caterwaul that defined his two rock bands, Hüsker Dü and Sugar. More than anything, Bob Mould has always made honest records that ask the listener to ditch past expectations. There are some great, rousing songs on here; "Circles" and "Missing You" will please any rocker in need of sheets of loud guitars. Unfortunately, the two most ?clubby' tracks on here, "(Shine Your) Light Love Hope" and "I Am Vision, I Am Sound," rely on very dated dance-pop sounds such as vocoder'd vocals and cheesy programming. The album's most interesting songs are those that truly mix the electronic and rock elements; the slowly percolating, highly textured "Always Tomorrow" and the rousing single "Paralyzed." More like these next time, please. ?Mike McGonigal
