Free Music Notes for Year of Mondays
Free Music Review: One of the best undiscovered great albums ever made
Hit: 5 Stars
Mike Johnson's dark moody 2nd album is full of great music and hushed vocals for anyone down on their luck.Slow burning ballads of not fitting in and lost love burrow their way into your mind and stay there.Best song is the 9 minute Eclipse that builds in power as it goes on.Ironically the title of the first song Where Am I? is the title of Johnson's first release.Out of Mike Johnson's small handful of releases this is still my favorite...downbeat but wonderful.
Year of Mondays Poster
In case the title doesn't clue you in, this LP is filled with melancholy soul searching. Johnson's song writing is supported by his deep, slightly off-key vocals and beautifully melodic guitar work. It's also brought to life by an incredible ensemble of musicians including J. Mascis (Dinosaur Jr.) on drums and Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees) on bass. The album's opener, "Where Am I?" sets the tone for the entire album--a battle against loneliness and a searching for a place to fit in after all the water has passed under the bridge ("Where am I / I've lost my place again / even with my friends / and I can't see why / where am I"). From there, it's a slow, downward spiral, but a beautiful one at that. --Bill SnyderAlternative Rock Music CDs
