Advantages: Their Best Album Disadvantages: Shame it has to End....
...Excellent ***** If you like Led-Zep, You'll love this!!!
Consolers Of The Lonely is the second instalment from the Raconteurs (Jack Lawrence, Brendan Benson, Jack White and Patrick Keeler) brought to us by Third Man/XL Recordings. This CD is way better than their Debut album! Hands down. Jack White, Guitar Hero and song writing legend will go down in history and hopefully will be making records like this for years to come. Track 1, "Consoler of the Lonely", is a hard-hitting tune, which twists and turns (the tempo changes on several occasions). Full credit to Patrick Keeler's Drumming from the outset. Benson and White share the lyrics throughout and their vocal ranges work great together. Track 3, "You Don't Understand Me" is the best on the album. If you don't yet own this CD Make sure you go buy it NOW! It won't disappoint...

...New Model army moved through many musical phases in their long career, but always managed to play the game their way and stay one step ahead of the pretenders to their throne.

It kicks off with a dark, bass driven affair, I Love The World, a tale of being present when civilization falls, and shouting from...

Advantages: Just as good as 'Thunder and Consolation' Disadvantages: Not long enough!!!
...After looking through the music section of this website, i thought it my duty to write a review of New Model Army's 'Impurity' Album. New Model Army may mistakenly be placed within the 'goth' section of music. However, they are not as 'dark' as the Sisters of Mercy and similar acts and are slightly reminiscent of The Mission with undertones of The Levellers.
This album is fantastic!!!! I kid you not everyone, after such a good album as 'Thunder and Consolation', New Model Army had a reputation to live up to. As with most bands that release a really good album, the next seems to have a weight round its neck and a mountain to climb to even compare. With 'Impurity' all I can say is that it is better. There is a lot more contrast in the music and there are some truly beautiful tunes (check out 'Space', 'Purity', 'Marrakesh' and 'Vanity...
