Hand rolled,

This review is from: Now I'm a Cowboy (Audio CD)
Angst crooning , superbly poised guitar bellyaching , look for 90's indie rock in the dictionary and this will be close by, but dont be fooled this album is one that will remain in the gold collection forever. Gladly not dragged through the fame spotlight treadmill in the truest sense and for me it is to its credit, at least I never noticed if it was.Perhaps the message on these song is too riske, but it is beatiful to hear such brilliantly written and performed music played with some passion. Get your air guitars out and prepare to jump around your living room a bit, and although the subject matter is mostly depressing I feel stragely uplifted by the whole experience. I am mad.

Brilliant second effort from terminally-underrated Brit band,

This review is from: Now I'm a Cowboy (Audio CD)
'Now I'm A Cowboy' apparently had a painful gestation, but the results were hugely impressive. More guitar-led than the band's 'New Wave' debut, Luke Haines turns his bleary eye on the world with such crunching soundscapes as 'Lenny Valentino', 'Chinese Bakery' and the mordant closer, 'Daughter Of A Child'. None-stop brilliance, from one of the all-time great UK lyricists. Give him a chance.

When pop reaches its best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Now I'm a Cowboy (Audio CD)
Luke Haines seems to have the ability to transend above the particular tastes of the moment as dictated in the music press and connect with his audience on a "devotion inspiring" level. Probably the most well known of The Auteurs albums, "Now i'm a cowboy" is also the most accessable. Their influence on the new crop of British songwriters can be heard with impressive effect on bands such as "Hal & Roger" If you are unfamiliar with "The Auteurs", this album is well worth taking a chance on.
