Free Music Notes for I'll Be Lightning

Free Music Review: Joyful Misery!!!
Hit: 5 Stars

Liam Finn recently admitted on a directv concert series that the album is largley about breakups. That being said don't let that stop you from checking this cool album out. To quote the movie waking life"At times of chaos in my life I like to go salsa dancing with my confusion". Liam doesn't wallow in self-pity like other break-up albums. He bravely navigates between mourning, exorcising, and even sarchism saying"Is there such a thing as love... or is it just a trick to procreate?"
You'll get more and more with each listen if you give it a chance. The obvious influences didn't bother me because I bought this without knowing he was even related to Neil Finn. Check out his concert on directv it's very interesting as he uses a loop pedal. It's very different and worth checking out!!! I'll be on the lookout for new material and will probably check out his previous band betchadupa!

I'll Be Lightning Poster

Indie wunderkind Liam Finn has burst onto the musical landscape with the force and presence of an artist twice his age. The 23-year-old New Zealander plays nearly every instrument on his first solo release I'll Be Lightning, a responsibility he doesn't relinquish when performing live. During his raucous yet intimate performances Liam utilizes effects pedals to create, sample and loop bass, guitar, drums, vocals and even Theremin. Liam's sound ranges from foggy and intimate to fuzzed-out garage but melodies are always the order of the day. On I'll Be Lightning, Liam has translated the shambolic energy of his live show onto vintage 2-inch tape, yielding a studio album of frightening power and endless hooks.
