Free Music Review: Shadows of Lies!!!!
Hit: 4 Stars
Not too long ago my girlfriend introduced me to Joseph Arthur. I had heard Honey and the Moon and Speed of Light lyrics spill gloriously from her rough lips many a time. I finally downloaded Redemption's Son, heard Dear Lord, and was instantly hooked much the same as when I first heard M. Ward. I listen to NPR, and they introduced a series of EPs he will be releasing over the next few months. Shadows of Lies is my favorite from this EP. If the rest of the EPs sound anything like this, I will look forward to owning them all, including the album coming out at the end of the summer...Very versatle, eclectic rocker. I truly see what Peter Gabriel saw in him...and an artist also, he had an opening in New York recently called The Museum of Modern Arthur... Could We Survive is Highly Recommended
Could We Survive (Dig) Poster
The first of five scheduled 2008 releases for Brooklyn, N.Y.'s Joseph Arthur, the six-song EP Could We Survive suggests a singer/songwriter teetering on the brink of Bob Dylan, circa 1963, but not in the sense of simple artist comparison. It is in the prolific nature in which he writes songs--the lead track "Rages of Babylon" is Iraq's version of "Masters of War"--and splashes them about a blossoming fan base. Arthur's not about cluttering up his songs with cosmic arrangements and one-too-many instruments, choosing instead to let the lyrics and melody share the guiding points. "Morning Cup" coasts on a gorgeous riff of acoustic guitar. Its love-craving storyline serves as a lead-in to the cheerful, organ-led "Shadow of Lies," where Arthur contemplates a relationship, admitting," in the dead of night there's no place I can hide." A quieter, more solemn mood creeps into the title song and the reverberating "Walk Away," wrapping up the record in a tidy 21 minutes. And as the final strum of "King of the Pavement" ends the record, it's encouraging to know it won't be long until the next one. --Scott HolterAlternative Rock Music CDs
