Free Music Review: Something in Ed's eyes
Hit: 5 Stars

Ed Harcourt is another artist I discovered on a compilation put together by CMJ New Music Monthly that I fell in love with. "Something In My Eye" was the song included on CMJ's latest compilation cd. His smokey voice just almost made me swoon. He reminded me a bit of Leonard Cohen and lyrically he reminded me a bit of Rufus Wainwright. Considering how much I liked "Something In My Eye", I immediately acquired Ed's US debut album "Here Be Monsters". I will admit that the album didn't really sink in on the first listen but after the second spin in my cd player, the album has really grown on me. If the band Cousteau was really a solo artist, I think Ed Harcourt would fit the bill. The music on this album has that same torchy influences that I hear on Cousteau's debut album. Ed's music is something you would want to listen to after a night out on the town. "Here Be Monsters" is a gorgeous collection of pop/folk/rock that could easily melt butter without trying. "Those Crimson Tears" is a stunning piano ballad that I can imagine listening to in a bar drinking a martini. Of course "Something In My Eye", one of my personal favorite tracks on the album. If there was ever a male equivalent to my favorite indie pop band Saint Etienne I would have to say that Ed Harcourt is their male equivalent although his music is more folksy but with hints of Saint Etienne's brand of indie pop. Lyrically, Ed's music has that wistful, playful feel that I have come to expect in Saint Etienne's music so the comparison is rightfully so. "Here Be Monsters" is an excellent addition to anyone's cd collection if you are looking for something that isn't a 19 year old female pop singer.
