Product Description

From Amazon.com
Amid a musical landscape where "alternative" had quickly been co-opted by MTV and the fashion industry, Emily Saliers and Amy Ray tapped a vein of cultural and sexual dissatisfaction and yearning (if not rebellion) in their 20-something peers. Their first hit, "Closer to Fine," had an insinuating folk-pop groove and enough philosophical trappings to suggest this feisty acoustic duo had bigger things planned. Their third album proved it: the arrangements are aggressive and their pop temperament bubbles to the fore on songs like "Hammer and a Nail" and the handsome, sweet "Southland in the Springtime." --Roy Francis Kasten

4.0 out of 5 stars Charming harmony, 27 May 2007
By Pieter "Toypom" (Johannesburg) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   

The bittersweet harmonies and authenticity of this duo placed them among the foremost singer-songwriters of the early 1990s. Their intelligent lyrics and evocative imagery make every song worthwhile, even when the tune is not particularly catchy. So tracks like Hammer And A Nail and Welcome Me with its spectacular guitar patterns are pleasant enough but somewhat lacking in the melody department. Where the melody is great, they deliver the most exquisite songs like Southland In The Springtime, the poignant You & Me Of The 10 000 Wars, the soulful Pushing The Needle Too Far which reminds me of Marianne Faithfull, and the stirring poetic song The Girl With The Weight Of The World In Her Hands. Another great one is World Falls, a song which in its imagery evokes Jane Siberry's classic Bound By The Beauty. There is a spiritual undertone and a feeling of pastoral purity in the music which is reflected in the environmental concerns of some of the songs. Those who like the music of Lucinda Williams, Suzanne Vega and acoustic folk in general, will love this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Passionate Stories, 15 May 2004
By Rosie (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
'Nomads, Indians and Saints' is one of those albums that you'll play for the rest of your life. Each song has it's own message and moral, something to teach you about how to accept or appreciate life's emotionally charged moments. Astounding harmonies, astute lyrics - not for the fainthearted.
