Free Music Notes for Sole and the Skyrider Band
Free Music Review: This is what music should sound like.
Hit: 5 Stars
Every once in a while a new album comes out i find myself saying "Why hasn't someone else already done this?" right when the first track kicked in i felt myself thinking this. The last album to make me wonder about that was Why?- Elephant Eyelash. I have been a fan of Sole for a while probably first thing I heard from him was his parts on Deep Puddle Dynamics. Later I got Bottle of Humans and liked that and i continued on collecting his albums. Those albums I mostly just liked for the lyrics and cool delivery. The beats never did much for me. But when I heard his new album is with this Skyrider band i became interested. And when i finally heard it i was blown away. It was like the lord of the rings soundtrack and el-p got together to make amazingly epic music then got sole to rap over it. This and This is easily soles best and most mature album. It's an album i can see myself listening to fifty years down the line. this album is going to be a timeless classic. Sole truly is a bob dylan or woody guthrie of a new generation. if only the generation would pay attention.
Sole and the Skyrider Band Poster
Though Sole's last album, Live From Rome, came out only two and a half years ago, and Sole has been busy in the meantime, recently releasing a solo instrumental LP under the moniker mansbestfriend, and twice touring the US and Europe, he nonetheless refers to the self-titled Sole & Skyrider record as a "comeback". In some ways, Sole & Skyrider is a record of return, a return to rhyming, for one, particularly the complicated rhyme schemes that marked Sole's early work, a return driven by his seemingly, but not actually, discordant love of both Lord Byron and Li'l Wayne. It also represents a return to the musical consistency and coherence that made the Alias-produced Selling Live Water a critical triumph. It is also, though, more than a mere return. Even before he'd finished Live From Rome, Sole had become disenchanted with the process by which he'd been making music: get a beat, spit a rap, mix it down. Fortunately, a series of events led him into the arms of Skyrider. The Orlando three-piece soon relocated to Flagstaff, Arizona, where Sole's been living since his return from abroad, and all of a sudden, music-making became a warmer, richer thing. And you can hear it in the music: these songs feel lived-in, composed but not cold or calculated, and fierce yet not angsty. The improvisational songwriting process produced a musicality new to Sole's discography, and also furnished a number of stunning juxtapositions. The lovely analog of "Shipwreckers" (where Sole jacks the hook from the Guy Debord film, Refutation of All Judgements) comfortably cohabits with the grinding, anthemic opening track, where Sole promises, "when the last buzzard eats the last candy bar from the last body on the San Andreas, it'll be a sad day for investors".Pop Music CDs
