Free Music Notes for Send Away the Tigers
Free Music Review: Progression and Return
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a truly remarkable offering from the Manics. When I heard that this album was to be of the "return to the roots" type, I must be honest and say I had my misgivings. Somehow they have managed to continue to progress and evolve (Lifeblood, despite a few duds, has been among my favorites since it was released), while injecting some of the hard edges and rough surfaces of Everything Must Go and Gold Against the Soul. Above all, the Manics must be given credit for choosing their singles well, Autumnsong has swiftly risen to favorite status, rivaling To Repel Ghosts, If You Tolerate This..., and Roses in the Hospital in my mind. Life performance recordings that are circulating bear out the thought of a re-invigorated band, even older songs come across as more energetic and changed.
One caveat - this is a very well-produced, hi-fi album. If you're preference is low-fi you'd be better off sticking with Generation Terrorists. Nevertheless, I'm not one of those - now if only they would tour the States! Boston isn't too far to the right of Havana... Come on!
Send Away the Tigers Poster
Fans of Welsh rockers the Manic Street Preachers have been holding their breath for the arrival of the band's eighth studio album. Will Send Away the Tigers be evidence of another new musical twist? Might they revert to their old fiery ways? In fact, Send Away the Tigers does both. An intriguing blend of backwards-looking nostalgia and forward motion, fans might be pleased to learn, first of all, that the album features its fair share of anthems. "Your Love Alone Is Not Enough" (which features Cardigans singer Nina Persson), "Indian Summer," "Autumnsong," and "The Second Great Depression" all boast catchy choruses and are underpinned by the stadium-rock aesthetic of the good old days. The Manic's political fire also remains intact, shifting emphasis to the Iraq war with mediocre songs like "Imperial Bodybags," while the title track and "Rendition" indicate a slightly more innovative direction. It's no Holy Bible, nor a Generation Terrorists - but Send Away the Tigers does show the boys can still make a glorious racket when they try. --Danny McKennaPop Music CDs
