I love Neil Diamond!.......2003-05-14

I saw these guys in concert last year and was quite impressed. The CD doesn't quite capture the rawness of the concert or the ensemble feel of the guitar, drum, stand-up bass set-up they used (too much digital blooping and bleeping for what could otherwise be very bluesy and earthy). Some good songs, but some of the lyrics don't stand up to repeated listening. And some of the acoustic guitar work is excellent, but sadly there just isn't enough of it on the CD. I find hints of Nick Drake, but then they disappear, or of Nick Cave, but then they just don't develop, but mostly of Neil Diamond, which I mean respectfully, but still Neil Diamond.

If I was stuck on a deserted island and could only bring one album, this would be it. Moody, passionate, this album is both beautiful and sad at the same time. Musically, it's some kind of trance Appalachian rock folk for this generation. That is, it captures the way most of the current generation feels. Every song is about being lost, or broken, or old and worn. The singer is obsessed with finding the cure, the rebirth, becoming new again. Just maybe, he finds it by the last track, There's A Blue Light. Someone said this is the new Bob Dylan. I wouldn't disagree. But its darker, more sinister. You could easily put this album on, and stare at the wall in apathy with tears in your eyes before realizing you've just listened to the entire thing. But it is not just that there is a sad overtone to the music here. Beauty can bring tears as well. This album is so perfect it makes me cry. Buy this album, but also get the first self-titled one, which is nearly as good as (or on some days is even better than) this one. But beware: Listening to Crooked Fingers will make all other music sound dull in comparison for the rest of your life.

Moody and smooth and hits the right notes

Haunting and Beautiful.......2002-04-29

In Crooked Fingers, Eric Bachman has created two masterpieces of albums that any self-respecting melancholy music fan should own. Best described as melodic drunken bar music, Bring On The Snakes is a story cd above any others, crafting and weaving the best song tales since Bob Dylan. If you love AoL, great. If you hate them-well, too bad, but that's no reason not to get this completely different, vastly superior effort. A perfect album.

Do you remember the line from the movie 'American Beauty', the one about sometimes things being so beautiful you don't think that your heart can stand it? It describes this album.

The music washes over you, filing you, yet leaving you hollowed out and open and wanting more even as the music is playing. The guitar and vocals and percussion blend beautifully, and are like an out-of-body experience.

I lost my breath the first time i heard this album, and sometimes i get so carried away by it i need to remind myself to breathe. Take my word for it, stop reading the reviews, and just buy it. You'll be glad you did.
