Free Music Notes for Redemption's Son

Free Music Review: Amazing Talent! - Best of 2002
Hit: 5 Stars

It's a shame that Joseph Arthur's latest release is only available on import to fans here in the U.S., but it's well worth the added cost. It is really a quite different listen from its majestic predecessor, "Come To Where I'm From", but shows how far his songwriting has evolved.

At first listen, "Redemption's Son" is easily his most accessible and pop-worthy record to date but it also contains his strongest collection of songs. The tracks are packed with beautiful lyrics/melodies and lush harmonies and a few of the tracks are especially reminiscent of an early 90's World Party sound. Highlights include: "Honey and the Moon", "September Baby", "You Could Be in Jail", "You Are the Dark" - although it's hard to pick standout tracks because there are plenty to choose from.

This record has the potential to be huge and deserves plenty of listens. Buy it now and play it loud - you won't be disappointed.

Redemption's Son Poster

Third album for critically acclaimed U.S. singer/songwriter discovered by Peter Gabriel. For fans of Leonard Cohen, Joe Henry & Jeff Buckley. Produced by T-Bone Burnett it features 16 tracks. Highlights include, 'Honey & The Moon', 'You Could Be In Jail',
One of the most promising of Peter Gabriel's Real World label protégés came not from some dusty, Third World village, but from that American tire and rubber mecca, Akron, Ohio. But while Arthur's previous Gabriel-inspired adventures netted him considerable critical kudos and even a ?99 Grammy nod for his self-created album art, he turns an even neater trick here. The frameworks for Arthur's 16 poetic, alternately introspective and impressionistic songs may be more firmly rooted in traditional folk and singer-songwriter formula than ever, but the influence of Gabriel seems even more pronounced on the album's evocative, often hypnotic sonic textures. Densely layered yet deceptively organic, it's a record of endless production subtleties in service of songs that trickle and dart like a playful stream of consciousness. Whether putting his own peculiar spin on romantic foibles in the dirge-turns-anthem "Favorite Girl," the upbeat energy of "Let's Embrace" and "In the Night," or conjuring more intriguing existential imagery on the fragile "You Are the Dark," Arthur has produced an album that reveals itself anew on every listen. --Jerry McCulley
