Free Music Review: Hardest rocking Bruce with a whole lot less hope
Hit: 5 Stars
Bruce's rocker status is signed, sealed and delivered with this CD. This is the hardest rocking he and the band have done. If you read the backstory, you'll understand why--the band fought hard to record this music and I'm glad they won.
It's also some of the most painful music. There's a whole lot of anger here at a father, "Adam Raised a Cain," at the working life, "Factory."
"The Promised Land" and "Streets of Fire" offer a bit of hope, but it's thin and maybe won't happen--but what are people without dreams. What stands out is the artist's humanity.
Rebecca Kyle, June 2008
Darkness on the Edge of Town Poster
The pain of a protracted legal battle with his former manager and the release of being allowed to record again after a three-year layoff are equally apparent from the piercing hard rock and harsh lyrical content of Darkness on the Edge of Town. Betrayal and hard work that comes to naught are the primary subjects on his mind here, evidenced by songs such as "Adam Raised a Cain," "Factory," and "Streets of Fire." Elsewhere, there are signs of hope or at least the possibility of outrunning your problems ("Racing in the Street," "The Promised Land," "Prove It All Night"). But mostly, these are songs about exorcising some serious demons, and from the sound of things, Springsteen's loud, lonesome howl and blistering guitar work went a long way toward making him whole again. This is angry art, made by someone pushed to his absolute limit and more than ready to push back. --Daniel DurchholzImport exclusive two-disc set combines Bruce's 1978 album Darkness On The Edge Of Town with his1982 album Nebraska. Two standard jewel cases housed in a slip case. Sony/BMG. 2005.
