Product Description

CD Description
The fifth album from singer-songwriter and guitarist Matt Ward is his first to feature a full backing band. Recorded and produced in its entirety in an attic in Oregon, the album features guest apperances from Mike Mogis, Neko Case and JimJames of My Morning Jacket. Polished and accomplished, 'Post War' is an emotional and thought provoking record with real staying power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for what ails you., 22 Nov 2006
By Marley's Ghost (Stafford, UK) - See all my reviews
M. Wards bemoaning of the loss of "free" radio in the States on his last album "Transistor Radio" is understandable, as he himself is a major casualty of the system that prevails there now. How do you classify his music? Folk/Blues/Country/Jazz/Rock fusion? ... Not quite. Each track has a style of it's own. He just dips into whichever box takes his fancy at the time. And at whatever he choses he is a master. Ward has been around for a while now, and this is his fifth album, yet only recently did he get on national television. (Seach YouTube for "Chinese Translation" and you'll find a stunning performance on the David Letterman show.)

Whilst Sufjan Stevens can end up with too much of this and a bit watered down on that, and end up with albums that have brilliant highlights but ultimately can overface you, Ward does everything to perfection and realises that less is more. On top of this Stevens' voice compared to Ward's is just no contest.

On Post-War, Ward brings in a full band for the first time, and for me, at the moment, this album shades it by a whisker on being my favourite. After 2003's "Transfiguration of Vincent" and last year's "Transistor Radio" that believe me is saying something.

Favourite tracks "Post-War", "Chinese Translation" and "To Go Home".

If you thought Springsteen didn't quite capture those moments on "Darkness" ever again then come here. This lad will (eventually) inherit the earth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Music from the soul, 17 Jul 2008
By Abhinay Mehta (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of the best albums I have ever heard.
When you hear the music you know it came straight from the heart.

I could write a whole essay on what makes this album brilliant. But I won't because to really know how good this album is, you have to hear it, my words probably won't make sense anyway.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lisa Gerrard album review, 8 Jun 2009
By M. W. J. Pearce "Imphadrian" (Bromley, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Best of Lisa Gerrard (Audio CD)
Haunting voice, haunting tracks....

A fantastic album but maybe not to everyones taste. If you enjoyed the
soundtrack from Gladiator, you'll love this album.
