Free Music Notes for Moon Pix
Free Music Review: Chan Come back to 1998....
Hit: 5 Stars
this album,,is so beautiful and like others have said great to listen to while day dreaming or riding a bus where you don't really need to pay attention to whats really going on and just drift off with the music. but Cat Power has seriously changed over the years like most artist do,,but i feel like she is just straying for commercial-sake... her albums since you are free,,started to become more and more polished and more and more produced to where she lost that edge that made her music so lo-fi (almost recorded in a bedroom w/ a fourtrack),,everyone thought they could be cat power by learning a couple cords on the guitar and piano,,and singing their heart out,,well at least that's what i thought. i just wish she would come back to this sound, or the Covers Record sound and ditch Corporate America. I knew it was all over when i saw her new album being advertised at Target for 9.99 or something. boo.
Moon Pix Poster
Chan Marshall, a.k.a. Cat Power, has created an album, Moon Pix, that somehow manages to be both complex and difficult as well as stark and spacious. It's an interesting contradiction mirrored in Marshall's vocal and lyrical talents; her voice soars and croons, sometimes trading melodies with a wandering flute line, while her lyrics are powerful, inscrutable, and fiercely intimate. Two of the Dirty Three evoke a subtle instrumental landscape upon which she wanders, a place less haunting than haunted; specters of lost friends, lost loves, and unrealized dreams abound. There is beauty here, but the kind of beauty found in the crushed shell of a bird's egg or a cemetery in fall. Not an easy listen, but a necessary one. --Tod NelsonSinger Chan Marshall takes intimacy to a new level with the eerily lovely song cycle of Moon Pix. The narrative revolves around a nightmare figure who beckons toward a location that sounds rather like H-E-double hockey sticks. The starkness of this ghost story is mirrored in the austerity of the atmospheric music. Joined by Jim White and Mick Turner of the Australian slow-rock band the Dirty Three, Marshall uses spare guitar, flute, and piano arrangements to create the sounds of the last singer left on a postapocalyptic landscape. As Marshall sings in "Say," "If you're looking for something easy, you might as well give it up," and that lyric is the best description of this difficult and brilliant album. --Lois Maffeo
