Amazonレビュー

The title of Will Kimbrough's latest release refers to a disease of power, arrogance, and hypocrisy--but music that has this much conviction and soul-searching might well provide an antidote. The former frontman for Will and the Bushmen and sideman for Todd Snider and Rodney Crowell (among others), guitarist Kimbrough here reinforces his reputation as a songwriter of great range and social conscience, whether he's addressing foreign policy ("I Lie," "Perfect Desert Blue"), white-collar crime ("Act Like Nothing's Wrong"), or the bittersweet ironies of maturity ("Grown Up Now"). The spoken-word "Pride" evokes comparisons with T Bone Burnett, while the propulsive "Less Polite" is as pointed as Rodney Crowell's recent material. The hard-driving "Another Train" and double-time raver "Let Me Say Yes" carry an electric charge amid the rootsy, acoustic arrangements that dominate, with Kimbrough channeling the spirit of Woody Guthrie on the closing "Brand New Song." --Don McLeese

5つ星のうち5.0 Americana-Pop-Lala

Pop-Musik, ganz einfach Pop-Musik mit dem Americana-Staubsauger - und das vom Meister der krachenden Roots-Rock- und der passgenauen Country-Rock-Gitarre, wie er sie ansonsten auf z.B. Aufnahmen von Todd Snider oder Rodney Crowell beweist. Für den zweiten, den Fremdspielaspekt, liebe ich ihn bislang sehr, nur wenige produzieren so wundervolle, stilsichere Fremdaufnahmen exakt auf den Punkt wie er, doch für ersteres, den Musiker eigener Rechte...nun ja, zu bunt, einfach zu bunt - für mich, daher auch bislang nur Rauswürfe nach Wiederholungsanschaffungen.
Auf Amercanitis - die CD heißt nicht umsonst so - absorbiert er einfach alles, saugt alles auf, was ihm wohl jemals in seinem Leben zu Ohren kam, verarbeitet es zu kongenialen Pop-Roots-Rock- und -Country-Aufnahmen, vom akustischen Fiddle-Swing, über Jump'n'Jive, rockige Gitarrenkracher und Folk-Blues bis zum Kinder-Glockenspiel-Dobro-Song und Mendocino mäßigem Augie Meyers-Vox-Orgel-Rock, alles kenntnisreich und sehr kompetent, dabei extrem klangsicher auf den Punkt gespielt, auf den es ankommt. Und dabei hat er gar keine Probleme dabei soweit zu gehen, dass er sich einen zweiten Gitarrenkracher an Bord holt - Pat Buchanan.

Wer nun eine, wie auch immer geartete, Erwartungshaltung entwickelt hat - er soll sie saußen lassen, nichts davon wird zutreffen, dafür bekommt er aber alles, denn nicht weniger bietet der Mann.

5つ星のうち5.0 American Songwriters Refuse to Die !
2008年10月3日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

IN a vein long unmined, Will Kimbrough brings back topical music, with a vengeance. "I lie" sums up the mores of the powerful and rich in America
while "Act like Nothing's Wrong" gives you the instruction to survive it. His writing skills, to the point AND musical bring back a too-long lost genre in the U.S. - songs with a message besides sappy-love-drips.
Try him on for size, no lies involved, and with very little exageration brings the mirror up to our faces and dares us not to see ourselves - "Warring Ways" tells it like it is. The song craftsmanship is first rate and if you don't mind music making you think, this is a Great American Album/CD. 'nuff said. Kc

5つ星のうち5.0 A sharper more political Kimbrough
2007年7月14日に英国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
Previous Kimbrough albums have been a mix of country, rock, pop and blues and while some songs have made political points, most have been about life, love and the universe in general.

This album is different, the delivery is the same, with that wonderful voice that at times sounds like Lennon and other times like Finn, excellent musicianship and lyrics that do just what they're intended to do. On this outing the songs are sharper, darker and overtly political. I think Kimbrough has had enough of Bush and feels the American dream is being stolen by the business and political elite and that it was about time he got up and said something about it.

Don't be put off by the political/protest tone, there's good stuff here (particularly if you agree with his pov), and Kimbrough has had the good sense to make his point without 'shouting'. Even so, he leaves you in no doubt about where he stands.

He's also excellent live, solo or with a band. If you get a chance to see him, don't pass it up.

5つ星のうち2.0 Americanitis

I was disappointed with this album. Maybe Will was trying something different but it is so far removed from all his other albums. Will is a terrific guitarist, he has a number of really good albums to his own name as well as featuring extensively on the albums of others. Americanitis is not representative of his other work and is only for the truly committed fan.
