Free Music Review: The new-old Jarvis
Hit: 5 Stars

Jarvis Cocker is back again, and like his previous solo album, Jarvis, a lot has happened since you last heard from him. 2009 Jarvis is a changed man, but at times the new man sounds an awful lot like Pulp-era Jarvis.

Most of the album seems to be dedicated to the mid-life crisis man, hotly fumbling after the young twentysomething lasses who cross his path, still the same man who used women like Kleenex over ten years ago, but now knowing that he's past his prime and that "this is no 'mouth-watering proposition.'" He's still got to try though; it's almost like he really can't help himself.

There is just enough of a different side of the man, though, the wistful, wiser man who sees life passing him all too fast. "Hold Still" is a downright beautiful plea for time and the ones he loves to stop slipping through his fingers. It seems that with one hand he wants to hold time still and relish life, and with the other he wants to lift your skirt. Very contradictory, but very Jarvis Cocker.

Overall, though, I think this album comes together quite nicely and seems stronger than 'Jarvis' ever was. His voice is stronger, he's not afraid to scream, but he's also not afraid to whimper "you're everything to me" to her back as she's leaving for good. There is definitely more depth here as the album -- perhaps unintentionally? -- chronicles the end of a marriage and a middle-aged man once again thrust into the wide world, trying to figure out where he fits now. A touching and honest look into the mind of a great, if greatly flawed, man.

Further Complications Poster

His second solo album, following 2006's "Jarvis". Recorded in Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio in Chicago, "Further Complications" contains the more roughed up tunes Cocker has been peddling since parting with Pulp. Look for him on tour this summer.
