Free Music Notes for Ganging Up on the Sun
Free Music Review: laced with funk and not long enough
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is delightful. guster turns out a broad span of different elements with good old guster style. in this album they picked up a hint of blue grass (the captain,c'mon), the mandolin part in the captain is breathtaking. Ganging up has a mix of a few thoughtful songs (lightning rod has a somber but beautiful organ back tone) and the lyrics. I didn't pick up any of the political whining that is so common in present day pop
which i find highly inartistic and distracting. Guster holds views about the environment which are reasonable and they know when and how to say them.
this album is funked to the brim and i only wish it was longer
Ganging Up on the Sun Poster
Together for over a decade, Guster's new album is their fifth and it shows them having gained a certain breadth in their middle age (that's middle age in band years). Recorded in Nashville, they're now expanded to a quartet with multi-instrumentalist Joe Pisapia as a fulltime member adding a range of mature sounds and textures (everything from lap steel guitar, banjo and dulcimer to trumpet). They've fashioned a work that's radio friendly without being cloy, largely because of the subtle unpredictability of the arrangements and the underlying songs. They move with ease from the dreamily hypnotic "Satellite" to the slashing guitars of "The New Underground." They're equally at home with high volume (the thunderous "the Beginning of the End") and low ("Empire State"). Ryan Miller's confident vocals lend an everyman friendliness to the set as a whole. --David GreenbergerGuster's playful yet literate, spirited and largely acoustic pop-rock returns with the endearing college favorite's first studio album in three years. Ganging Up On The Sun—produced by Ron Aniello [Lifehouse, Barenaked Ladies and Guster's previous album, Keep It Together], the band, and new member Joe Pisapia—retains the unconventional, melodic pop craftsmanship and flawless harmonies that have garnered Guster one of the most devoted fan followings in the country. Guster brightens up the summer with Ganging Up On The Sun.
