Change Is Gonna Come
Based in roots music, this is a cool folk rocker. It makes me think of Bob Dylan in a lot of ways. |
|
Got Guns?
More rock and roll based, this is a singer/songwriter styled tune that’s classy. It’s also classic in texture. This anti-NRA cut is topical right now for sure. It has some country twinge to it. And, yes, I know it’s pro-Gun, but it’s obviously Poe. |
|
Tears on the Back of Her Head
A mellower, slow piece, the organ lends a real retro texture. This is part country music, part gospel and all cool. It’s one of my favorite tunes here, really. |
|
You Are Here
The mellow balladic cut is very much a folk meets country kind of thing. It’s slow and pretty. |
|
Necessary Evils
More of a rocker, there is a lot of country music in the mix here. I dig the violin (I should probably say “fiddle”). |
|
Puppet Master
Here’s another energized country tinged rocker. It’s cool stuff. |
|
Holding Your Hand
A mellower cut, this includes a nice duet. It’s a country and folk based balladic cut. The sounds are quite timeless. The organ lends a lot. |
|
Body, Choice & Mind
I love the piano and the guitar soloing on this thing. It’s a real southern fried rocker. It’s a great tune, too. |
|
Follow the Leader
Another ballad, this isn’t anything Earth shattering, but it’s solid and effective. |
|
The Beast
Here we get a folk rocker with some country in the mix. It’s bouncy, energetic and fun. |
|
She Gives
A bit more of a rocker, I like the violin on this tune. The tune is part folk rock, part country rock and all based in a singer/songwriter vein. |
|
Perfect Day
This starts with the mellowest section of the whole album. The cut gets a bit more involved, but only a little, as it continues. It remains just vocals and an acoustic guitar, though. While it’s an intriguing piece, I think it might have worked better in a different position. It just doesn’t seem to have the necessary charm for a closer. |
