 Rating: - I love Drivin n CryinI don't really cry when I drive but this CD is fantastic. They have a very unique sound which is why they stand out to me. I purchased all of DnC's CDs and really enjoy all of them. Rating: - We're Still Waiting for a Follow-Up!This is the last studio album (to this point) from Atlanta rockers drivin n cryin. Tightly crafted by dnc and producer Kosmo Vinyl (who managed the Clash), dnc's seventh album tours refurbished songs from frontman Kevn Kinney's Milwaukee punk rock days ("Let Lenny B.," "Paid in Full," "I've Got a Message," and the title track), confessional singer-songwriter material ("Around the Long Way," "Beneath the Undertow"), power-pop gems ("Keepin' It Close to My Heart," "Everything's Gonna Be Allright"), a John Denver cover, and a beatnik wanderlust epic ("Passing Through") before leaving us with a Ramones tribute which pretty much sums up the band's ethic ("Nothing to Lose"). Tightly put together with bright, accessible production, this is a fine ...

No this isn't a psuedostellar work comprised of overproduced attempts at rock anthems, but instead this self titled album is a collage of introspection,lamentation,homage,quirkiness, and rebelliousness.I bought this record when it was first released, and I listen to it at least once every couple of weeks.To my notion, my predessessors in reviewing this work are opinion rich and dismally off. "Paid in Full", "Leaving on a Jet Plane", ... Read More: Rating:  - Self-Titled Swan SongModern day Southern rockers Drivin'n'Cryin' enjoyed a brief heyday circa 1991 when their misunderstood flag-waving anthem "Fly Me Courageous" and the album of the same name put them on the cusp of stardom. Ultimately, however, the band proved to be entirely too quirky for the mainstream and their self-titled 1997 album turned out to be their last. The album starts slowly, with the first half featuring mostly relatively bland hard rock. On the latter half, however, they return to their strengths, namely the kind of idiosycratic tunesmithing that made their best music so entertaining. The high points include an absolutely smoking cover of the John Denver/Peter,Paul and Mary standard "Leaving on a Jet Plane," the sweet ballad "Passing ... Read More: Rating:  - LOST MAGICThe title CD of the great and overlooked band has a few good songs, but nothing at all very memorable. If you're looking to enjoy Drivin' and Cryin and want quality stuff, then: "Fly Me Corageous"-can't go wrong with the hard rockin' album, though remembr that it was made late 80's (early 90's ?), and enjoy "Wrapped in Sky"- in my opinion a gorgeous album; accoustic, sweet songs, a couple of hard-rock drivers, and some amazing moments. The entire album smells of South Dakota. (You'll know what I mean if you've been to South Dakota and are a big D&C fan.) |
