Free Music Notes for Blue BobFree Music Review: Instinct Hit: 4 Stars
As part of the recent changes in Lynch's art work from the last 10 years, M. Lynch is now exploring more in details the instinctive part of his artistic process. But by keeping in touch with his inner stages of creation of his earlier work and artistic process, BLUEBOB remains still in that little dark corner of mysteries in which Lynch is king. Put simply: directed for music lover.
Free Music Review: Uh, not quite... Hit: 4 Stars
'Good Wood' is an album recorded by a different David Lynch altogether, not the film director who is also part of Blue Bob. That was almost as bad as the time I was reading a review of The Elephant Man on Amazon and someone thought that the actor John Hurt and bluesman Mississippi John Hurt were one in the same. Some people are just so stupid.
Free Music Review: Just "eh" Hit: 2 Stars
I'm a huge Lynch fan, so I got this CD. But there's not really anything about it that makes me want to give it repeat listens.
Free Music Review: Not weird, not dark, not ridicuous... Not Remarkable Hit: 1 Stars
I was quite disappointed with this album. I'm a pretty big fan of David Lynch's films, especially his stranger, darker ones. And I'm fascinated by the soundscapes that he creates. So when I read that this album is "based on the pounding machinery of the smokestack industry...inspired by machines, fire, smoke & electricity..." I thought that this could be my album of the year. Others here call it "dark, weird," and so on, so I took a chance. But this album is hardly remarkable; it's just 2- or 3-chord guitar music with some heavily reverb'd lyrics groaned over it. If it was played in the background during 'The Bronze' scenes in "Buffy," I'd never even think to question it. There are dozens of bands that sound like this, and I dismiss them, so why cut Lynch any slack? I think I was hoping for Eraserhead and instead got something far more mainstream and boring than I'd ever imagined. If you, like me, thought that this might be industrial, or perhaps even as off-beat as, say, 'The Residents,' you're in for a disappointment. This isn't nearly weird enough to be interesting or memorable. Sorry, Mr. L.
