Free Music Review: The sexy side of the Steal Mill...
Hit: 5 Stars
If like me you are a fan of "Twin Peaks" and films of David Lynch, then I'm sure you have noticed a recurring theme in some of his work, that of "the mill". This album is like an ode to the rhythmic, industrial sounds one would find in a place like the Packard Saw Mill, or if you were out with Frank one night and drove past the mill in Lumberton, layered over with good old fashioned Americana sex appeal wrapped inside of one of Lynch's dream sequences...
If you have seen Mulholland Dr. then you have heard some of this music before (mostly towards the end). Also if you have seen Fire Walk With Me then you have heard this type of sound (the scenes in Canada with Jeac).
Over all a very fun trip into Lynch's world, and a great album to have sex to!

Hit: 5 Stars
The latest musical creation from David Lynch and John Neff is one massive quasi-minimalist experiment that will definitely get you into a mood. A very strange mood. In that sense it truly is brilliant. Dark, mono-melodic yet richly layered with unusual guitar pedaling techniques, the songs create audioscapes that blend a 1950's feel with an indescribable disturbing weirdness that is best described as, well... "Lynchian". Neff's humorous, memorable, semi-gravelly rock vocals morph and change character throughout each song and work especially well in the audio palette the two have painted. I highly recommend BlueBob AND Eraserhead if you're craving a different kind of ear and eye saturation experience.Free Music Review: only for da lynches

Cool. An interesting mix of genres. Lynchian lyrics, and some great scratchy vocals. Worth picking up if you're a fan of Lynch or of great music that's a little bit wierd.Free Music Review: David Lynch seduces again

That Mr. Lynch is capable of making some of the most striking and original films of recent past may be acknolledged. That he is also a celebrated photographer and art painter is known by many.
But less known is the fact that that the man likes to play a little tune on the guitar once in a while: acoustic (which can be heard on the 'Good wood' album) and electric: which resulted in this 'Blue Bob'.
David likes to toy with both of them. He writes the lyrics (as he did for the two first Julee Cruise albums), plays the percussion and does the singing. With all this, he is accompanied by one John Neff, so in a way we could talk about a two-man-formation.
But David really has his moments here. The sound is all too familiar for his die hard fans who know David's film feature debut 'Eraserhead'. Soundscapes filled with machinery, bouncing steele, hydraulic pumps, hissing steam.... The album has become a nihilistic, brooding and almost industrial sounding record with which David just seems to have fun with. Tongue-in-cheek-fun that is. You never quite know when he is taking himself seriously or just jamming with a good sense of black humor behind it.
The most stand out song must be 'Mountains falling'; never sounded an electric guitar that grimm, lustful, steamy, erotic and haunting like on this song, an 8-minute-plus ode to an unidentifiable 'you' Mr. Lynch sees in a dream.
Lynch uses this song partly in his genious magnum opus 'Mulholland Dr.', as also the song 'Go get some', the latter used as backing music for a steamy lesbian scene with Naomi Watts.
David Lynch has proven to be that flamboyant artist again, untouchable, childlike, and surreal at times, although this one is not so much for the eye as it is for the ear.
