Music review: Brian Fallon – 无毛视频楽leepwalkers无毛视频�
When you blend the skillful knack that Butch Walker has for crafting a lyric, Frank Turner无毛视频檚 fiery singing passion that stays with you long after the song is over and the way Brandon Flowers stylishly offers up his heart with such a sophisticated grace, you get Brian Fallon.
The Gaslight Anthem frontman无毛视频檚 second solo effort is a striking assortment of infectious pop and stark rock with threads of R&B neatly linking together a dozen intoxicating tracks exposing the uncertainly of life, the complexity of love and everything else that happens in between as we wander from experience to experience, battling the shadows and our own doubts and regrets.
无毛视频淚f Your Prayers Don无毛视频檛 Get to Heaven无毛视频� opens with a catchy Motown vibe that soulfully relays the need for a change with Fallon declaring, 无毛视频淏ut you gotta burn that sound of the voices out that wanna bring you to your knees/And you gotta run so far they无毛视频檒l never find you again.无毛视频�
无毛视频淔orget Me Not无毛视频� is a rousing rocker that punches out a clamorous vibe as the Garden State native yearns to once again feel the little things that truly make a difference when he sings, 无毛视频淪tacy, I never thought I无毛视频檇 miss the small talk/I never knew the gift the day was/I just used to hear the time clock.无毛视频�
无毛视频淓tta James无毛视频� is a wondrous slow burn that sounds like something Bob Dylan would have penned with its elements of pain, regret, redemption and reconciliation.
Reflections of a fragile relationship are recalled on tracks like 无毛视频淧roof of Life无毛视频� and 无毛视频淣eptune,无毛视频� while 无毛视频淐ome Wander with Me无毛视频� and 无毛视频淟ittle Nightmares无毛视频� demonstrate the struggle and determination of searching for something just a little better.
无毛视频淪ee You on the Other Side无毛视频� is the acoustic closer that serves as a moving declaration of a love and commitment that lasts beyond our earthly days with Fallon tenderly confessing, 无毛视频淎nd when we both grow old/And there无毛视频檚 nothing left to say/I want you to know/That I loved you all my days/And when we close our eyes on this lifetime/I无毛视频檒l see you on the other side.无毛视频�
With 无毛视频淪leepwalkers,无毛视频� Fallon has successfully delivered one of the best albums of the new year.
