Free Music Notes for Stand Up
Free Music Review: Fantastic Disappointment
Hit: 1 Stars
It's hard to look forward and be hopeful and open minded about this album when there is so much great music in DMB's past. Jazz musicians of this caliber are enormously gifted and continually challenge convention. They usually despise repetition and are always looking for new challenges. Thinking outside the norm is what makes jazz. They are constantly moving on.
So when I see how far - yet how narrow the path - DMB has come from "Under the Table and Dreaming", "Busted Stuff", and my all-time favorite rock album "Crash", an exceptional and monumental work of elegant beauty, musical complexity, sweet emotion, sexual perversion, and pure jammin', kickin', rockin' music, it is very difficult for me to enjoy this work.
Given the serious amount of talent the band possess, efforts such as this are a fantastic disappointment. Not to say they should dig a happy rut and stay put, but the simplistic rhythms, lack of enthusiasm, repetitive and vapid licks, tone-free vocals and ineloquent lyrics are an insult to any fan of DMB. Maybe on the next album they will actually work up a sweat.
Stand Up Poster
Don't let the headless CGI dancer on the cover fool you. While Stand Up has a more organic feel than 2001's radio-ready Everyday, it is hardly an invocation for carefree days spent twirling on the grass. Instead it is a call to arms that carries over much of the insurrectionary spirit the Dave Matthews Band brought to 2004's Vote For Change Tour. Matthews, sounding rawer than ever, swerves between optimism ("To change the world you only start with one step," he sings on "You Might Die Trying") and angst ("See the man with the bomb in his hand/ Everybody wake up," goes "Everybody Wake Up [Our Finest Hour Arrives]"), while producer Mark Baston, best known for his small-time work with big-name pop acts like Beyonce and 50 Cent, responds by putting the marching band rhythms of Carter Beauford in the front and galvanizing the music with a crisp R&B edge, most evident in the totally - okay, partially - crunk "Stolen Away On 55th & 3rd." --Aidin VaziriPop Music CDs
