Quite A Listening Experience, Oct 23 2006
By KA "BearMan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: On My Way To Absence (Audio CD)
Damien Jurado is definitely an artist who should be more known but one would guess he likes the way his career is going. No doubt he was courted by record labels to become a bigger star in some sense of the word or other. I'm glad he decided to stay on his own course and quietly put out great albums.Damien Jurado definitely likes the darker side of things. He wrote quite a haunting song called "Medication" a couple of years ago that still stands as one of his best but as I followed him, I realized that he's the real deal. He can really write good songs. I'm not always in the mood for Damien but I do find myself returning to his music, especially in those introspective moments.
When I listen to Damien Jurado, I often think of Edgar Lee Masters' Spoon River Anthology which is a collection of poems written as if they were epitaphs. He can be a little intense and he's pretty fearless when it comes to writing some of the heavy writing he does. He's got a voice like no other and writes songs like no other. He's pretty unique. His ability to write piercingly honest and poignant songs is a little frightening. He does in one song what some artists could never do in a lifetime of writing music. Some of his musical story telling is sad but I guess you could say that there is much sadness in the world. We couldn't have happiness without it. He clearly understands this as he is prone to the darker side of things but we all have that streak in us don't we? He's just not afraid to explore it.
