The bombastic volume of their heavier numbers easily matched (and often surpassed) the intensity of their contemporaries in 1969. At the same time, their songs were quite dynamic and borrowed widely from different genres including folk & blues. It seems obvious that Jimmy Page had been paying close attention to Jeff Beck's debut TRUTH while crafting the sound of his new band, even going as far as covering "You Shook Me". It's never been any great secret that Zeppelin borrowed & stole many of its ideas from other songwriters. Still, they were great interpreters and often knew how to elevate these songs & ideas to their full potential. Their debut album remains a towering achievement to behold, both for musicians wanting to follow in their footsteps and more casual music fans."  [+]  Reply

Not a single production mistake. Not a single line that Tweedy doesn't inflect like if he really cared about his art. It's complex at every level, but it doesn't feel challenging because the music invites you to appreciate it like if it was the dumbest pop music ever. Yankee Hotel Foxtrot channels every possible mood or emotion that contemporary americana can deliver and enhances them through the new sonic palette that the new millenium (and Tweedy's insatiable perfectionism) had to offer. Amazing work."  [+]  Reply

Low manages to embody the depth of absolute melancholy through manifestations vocal and instrumental, brash and serene; the feeling is strong even in the album's perkier tunes, like "Sound and Vision," which holds up as one of the best songs of his career. Declaring an absolute best album for a decade is still pretty arbitrary, especially for a decade with such immense scope as the '70s, but maybe Pitchfork had the right idea."  [+]  Reply

Sparse, intimate, and voice-driven are some of them. And all three of them describe this album perfectly - as others have said, it is the sound of an artist laying their life bare with songs reflecting over their experiences. But somehow, in this case, it all comes together and creates what I believe to be the most perfect album ever crafted. It's one thing to have a great voice, and it's quite another to be able to use that voice and make it sound honest. If there's one word that describes (nearly) all of the music I enjoy it's honest. And if someone is clearing trying to hit high notes and sing in key that honesty is lost; that's why I often prefer bad singers to good ones. But Joni makes hitting the high notes sound incredibly effortless, and she integrates them perfectly into the rest of the song so that they don't stand out as if she's trying to impress with her voice. It's an album that is so well crafted that the voice is irrelevant, but she still manages to sing perfectly. And the song-writing - the stream-of-consciousness style she writes in is just tremendous. Picture Kurt Cobain if the thoughts in his head actually made sense. There is no pretense, there is no thought. These are the things she is thinking, and she's not manipulating them to sound like poetry. There are moments on this record that are incredibly general and could apply to anyone, and there are moments where the specificity is brilliant ("Richard got married to a figure skater, and he bought her a dishwasher and a coffee percolator"). The songs reflect the era she lived in (Little Green / Blue) and her dreams for the future (River). Even when the lyrics blend into a more manufactured poetry they sound so heartbreakingly beautiful you can't fault it (Case of You). And of course there's a central theme that ties things together nicely - it wouldn't be a true album if the songs didn't feel like they belonged together. Not only is there the general sentiment of heartbreak that is described by colors (Blue and Green, obviously), but each song seems to dwell on a different aspect of the feeling (or the moments leading up to it). The songs also progress nicely, starting off hopeful and glad and then straying into sadness, depression, and what I wouldn't hesitate to call despair. It starts with hopes and dreams (the dream theme culminates in Carey and California) but by the end the illusion is shattered and the truths about love and life come out. My love for this album goes even beyond words, but somehow it's the one I find the most to say about and the most to discover more in. The number of times I've broken down sobbing to this album is not a single digit number."  [+]  Reply

Stevens has plenty to draw on here, the sporadic relationship they had, her drug addiction and her mental instability. It can be uncomfortable listening - particularly in the way it explores feelings we often pretend aren't there or in expressing that feeling of being very lonely and very adrift in the world but nothing says 'I Love You' more than the music on offer here and that's good enough."  [+]  Reply
