Free Music Review: The Future is No Place to Place Your Better Days
Hit: 5 Stars
Incredible. This is my favorite Dave Matthews Band album. From the first track to the last, the diversity and variety of the music is incredible. The only way to review this album is to go track by track:
1) So Much to Say -- (9.1/10) This is a fun song that captures the quirkiness of their music and lyrics. Rythmic acoustic guitar and flexible vocals make this song an excellent song for beginniners to begin with, and a great song for lifelong fans to sing/dance along to.
2) Two Step -- (9.3/10) Quiet, rythmic acoustic guitar begin the song, but it almost immediately begins to swirl into a swinging, jovial tune. Lyrics are top-notch, and the rest of the band (not just Dave) all get a time to shine here in this song.
3) Crash Into Me -- (10/10) This song gets a lot of recognition, and is there any wonder why? Everything about the song is incredible. The band meshes together behind Dave, giving Dave the spotlight, but keeping the support behind him. This song is next to impossible to play on guitar, and Dave pulls it off magnificiently. The lyrics are some of Dave's best. The rythym that Carter Beauford provides on the snare drums is insanely good. You cannot help but tap your foot to the (almost) marching beat.
4) Too Much -- (8.7/10) This is my least favorite song on the album (but remember, all of this IS my personal preference). This is a very fun song that has amazing potential live. Electric guitar bends and crazy, crazy lyrics make this song a fun dance song.
5) Say Goodbye -- (9.8/10) One of Dave's greatest songs, hands down. This song is simply all about sex, and it is absolutely beautiful. Leroi Moore (usually the saxophonist) plays the flute on this song, and the atmosphere created is absolutely amazing. Dave's voice soars effortlessly through the most difficult parts, leaving the listener stunned. This is a great song to get into the mood with.
6) #41 -- (9.5/10) This song... again... is about sex. It is just as beautiful as 'Say Goodbye,' and it utilizes the saxophone and violin more. With a jam part at the end of it, this makes a great song to not only get into the mood with, but too... actually... you get the picture. The jam part at the end of it makes for amazing potential live, which the band follows through with often. If you want a great 10 minute version, download it off the "Listener Supported" live album. Or just buy it, it's completely worth it.
7) Drive in, Drive Out -- (9.0/10) Like 'Too Much,' this song is a quirky, upbeat, bendy song. Dave plays the electric guitar on this one also. The ending jam part simply blows the mind, leaving you with a 'wow' feeling at the end. The lyrics are again strange, but fitting for the song itself. Stefan Lessard's bass guitar gets a workout during this song, as well as Boyd Tinsley's violin. And as usual, on every track, Carter Beauford, the drummer, is excellent with percussion -- cowbell, etc..
8) Let You Down -- (9.0/10) This is my favorite DMB song to listen to when I want to relax. The acoustic guitar, the light bongos, the tinkling percussion, and Dave Matthew's voice all swirl together brilliantly to bring about one of my favorite relaxation songs of all time. The lyrics beg for forgiveness, and the mood is very mellow. A great contrast to 'Drive in, Drive Out.'
9) Lie in Our Graves -- (8.7/10) This is the ultimate jam song. The song's upbeat rythym slows down to a very sensual, rythmic jam session at the end. A very enjoyable song, although I tend to skip it. But I don't know why I do that because what I start to listen to it, I can't stop -- I get into it and I can't get out of it. It brings you into another world.
10) Cry Freedom -- (10/10) The lyrics will blow your mind. They are hard to understand because in this song, Dave tends to mumble. But if you look online at http://dmband.com/sights/sights_main.asp?album=4 , you'll find the lyrics for all of the songs. Just click on the red box next to the songs you see there. Dave plays electric guitar on this one as well, to great effect. The song is quiet, for the most part, as the lyrics are the main focus (over everything else). The song begs for understanding and equality among humans, declaring "Hands and feet are all alike, but gold between divide us," and that "The future is no place to place your better days."
11) Tripping Billies -- (10/10) Tied with 'Cry Freedom,' 'Tripping Billies' is my favorite song on the album. The lyrics are absolutely incredible, bringing us back to our childhood, and sending us messages such as "Eat, drink, and be merry -- for tomorrow we'll die." The song begs us to live life today, live life as if we were to die tomorrow. The song is about love, friendship, and having a great time. Listen to the lyrics -- they are the focus. But towards the end of the song, Boyd Tinsley's violin takes center stage. Incredible violin solos round out the song perfectly. I saw this song live last year in Phoenix and it absolutely blew my socks off. Do not pass this song up. Even if you don't buy the album, download the song.
12) Produest Monkey -- (9.4/10) Easily the quirkiest song on the CD, 'Produest Monkey' is about a monkey who leaves the jungle and goes to the city and experiences things monkeys ordinarily wouldn't experience. This is a great song to take a walk to, or to just chill out to. The song gradually rises in pace and volume, and at the end is capped off perfectly by an excellent saxophone solo by the insanely talented Leroi Moore. The song is a perfect end to the album. The song is nine minutes long and makes for an excellent song live (although it is rarely played live).
Overall, the album is one that should not be missed. It is one of those albums that you begin to listen to track one, and you cannot help but go all the way to track 12 without stopping. An hour of music goes by in a few minutes, it seems. Enjoy it, for it is one of the most enjoyable albums out there. If you throw down preconcieved notions about the Dave Matthews Band and go into this album with an open mind, you will enjoy it.
