First album in 8 years. I've only listened once but it's nice to have him back.


quote:

Damien Rice reintroduces himself after an eight-year absence, sounding as if he’s fallen through the rabbit hole and come out the other end somewhat wearier, but clear-eyed and more resolute. Rice’s “Fantasy,” coproduced by Rick Rubin, is often dark and beautiful, featuring dramatic orchestrations, intricate arrangements, and hushed, swooning vocals

Turned in on Spotify the other day. Need to find some delicate time to give it a listen.


Was a huge fan of his first two albums

you know I enjoyed his albums but I could see how some people would think they are boring.

but damien live with a full band will be a lasting memory of one of the best shows i've ever seen. he absolutely killed it in front of 200 people in new orleans at the venue above the HOB

Listening now. Starting off very strong.

I'm a big fan of his first two albums and didn't even hear anything about this new one until today. I thought maybe he had given up on music.

Let's see, albums released in:

2002
2006
2014

At this rate, we're looking at maybe 2028 before the next one.

This is probably my favorite album of the year. The songs are very strong. Definitely better than his second album and maybe as great at the first. He's one of the best songwriters out there. Great lyrics as usual.

Why do I keep thinking of Kanye when I read that album title?
