Product Description

CD Description

Singer/songwriter Adam Green returns with 'Sixes And Sevens', his sixth studio album and the follow up to 2006's 'Jacket Full Of Danger'. Previously working with Kimya Dawson in The Moldy Peaches gave Green a base from which to work from and his solo career has seen him become a modern day indie pop crooner. Catchy, reflective and often humorous lyrics combine with eclectic music styles and instrumentation to superband original effect. Singles include 'Morning After Midnight'.

3.0 out of 5 stars Quantity over quality..., 9 Mar 2008
By B. Wright (Gloucester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This album is a mixed bag of tunes, and while there are a lot of songs, the quality is sometimes lacking. The last album, Jacket Full of Danger, showed Adam moving towards a crooner-esque delivery, yet there were still some of the rocking tracks that made up most of Gemstones. With this album he continues in the same direction, the rockier songs aren't present, aside from maybe 'Broadcast Beach' (one of the better tracks on the album). Many of these sound like 'Jolly Good' from the last album, bringing to mind some sort of pop/ folk hybrid.
That's not to say that the songs all sound the same; Adam goes through so many different styles on this album, from the straight easy listening/ crooner style, to the more bizarre free-style rapping and just plain bizarre ('Festival Song' is part Hawaiian guitar, part chanting). It sounds like the work of someone with a short attention-span though, with styles changing so abruptly and many songs under the two minutes mark. At times the album feels incoherent as the styles collide, almost like a cd of demo tracks.
Sixes & Sevens is not as good as Adam's previous works. The use of so many different styles doesn't let his songwriting skills shine through. There are good songs here, but sadly they're outnumbered by the not-so-good. The whole thing seems a bit too throw-away to last as long as Gemstones or Jacket Full of Danger.

5.0 out of 5 stars twee twee dee-lightful, 11 April 2008
By L. Skelton "Princess Leilah" (South Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've been loving Adam since his Moldy Peaches days, and this album is marvelous! Yes the tracks are short and the genre changes make this album sound like he's easily distracted, but each track has its own charm. Its like he's offering you a dig in a white paper bag of penny sweets rather than the box of Milk Tray - you're not sure quite what you'll get, but you're always pleasantly surprised...

Utterly seductive vocals throughout and a 50's crooner flavour on the lions share of tracks, ('Tropical Island' had my friend thinking of 'Beauty School Drop-Out' from Grease - but in a good way!), this album is a must for any fan.

Buy it!
