Re: A.C. Newman - Shut Down the Streets (2012)
It is over.
That was a very undistinguished album with tunes that never managed to become interesting or to find anything that resembled a successful hook. Vocally, it was no more than workmanlike..
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.![Excited](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/4075307247.gif)

Oh well.
It's done.
A.C. Newman's not my favourite artist but he does have a lot of unassuming and gently expressed talent.
A fair percentage of his songs (even the really good ones) will often drift, lose focus or start going la la la etc, but I feel a lot of affection towards him and his own personal vision (brand?) of gentle power-pop/rock.
He also has a way of obliquely introducing deeply painful and personal stuff into his deceptively opaque lyrics.

All the very best recording artists score 2.7 in the Nu-HotW.

What did the last one - that Wendi recalled with such deep resonance - score I wonder? ![hmn](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/551738059.gif)

Apparently, I gave that one 3 stars because it reminded me of Pilot and the Bay City Rollers.
He should have made this one sound more like Pilot and the Bay City Rollers.![Colbert](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/586931285.gif)

He doesn't have the emotional core, musically, to be able to be Jackson Browne. ![Colbert](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/586931285.gif)

At least he didn't murder Daryl Hannah. ![Colbert](/users/3715/63/33/29/smiles/586931285.gif)
