New Racontuers Rating: 5 Shamrocks

Comments

I'm actually not yet convinced that the new album's as good as the first (after only 2 listens admittedly) but was utterly obsessed with the first one (I'd rate it 5 shamrocks). The new one does seem very varied, so I'll be giving it more attention and I'm sure it will hit me shortly. I actually dug the first one more than the White Stripes I think, which may be sacreligious to say...
I did like the first one a lot I just thought it should have been 7 songs long rather than 10. The reason I like this one so much is that the album sounds like a band playing. It isn't as easy to pick out which songs are jacks and which are brendan's which in my opinion is a good thing. Like Patrick's drums seem more vibrant throughout the album and Jack L's bass is more important. But it feels like a cohesive instead of turn taking. Like Rich Kid's Blues blows me away it's so many things so many influences that you can digest. To me, they found their recipe and thankfully I love the flavor....
