You know that first album which grabbed us by the throat and left us feeling all kinda feels we've never felt before? Yeah, it's like that, only way more depressing and moody. Which is a fucking good thing. I hate you Damien Rice, now I'm crying again.

Damn this dude is a serious beautiful melody crafter, and his voice perfectly matches his lamentations. Extremely good album, but as of 2014 indie folk, I'll go with Ben Howard. Over many listens, I feel the second half doesn't quite match the first one: each song has got a magnificent moment, but I'm kinda waiting for this moment to come instead of truly appreciating the whole song (eg. these strings in 'The Box').

The amount of personal sentimentality in this album, and perhaps the artist in general, is so clear and beautiful. Before this album I'd only heard of Rootless Tree, a song that brims with so much emotion so I already respected the artist from there on, due to a single song. I can already tell Damien's intentions are to simplify music yet give of the essential emotion, and make that as intense as possible, and he succeeds quite nicely at times. He makes a fuckton of use of strings for climaxes, and while it's not unique at all, it works. And it slowly ends with hopefulness. The disadvantage? It's not for everyone, which makes sense anyway. You need to understand the feelings to understand the album. Also the lyrics are kind of too straightforward. And it gets a bit repetitive. FAV TRACKS: It Takes a Lot To Know a Man

It took Rice 8 years but he delivered an exceptionally good album. He is one of the top in combining poetic songwriting and melancholic atmosphere with such a quality. Guitar parts are once more sweet and melodic but the orchestric parts on the background take the whole album to another level. Another positive is the fact that My Favourite Faded Fantasy is more consistent (at least in its majority) than 9 and O which makes it even more pleasant to hear. Recommendations: "The Box", "The Greatest Bastard", "It Takes a Lot To Know Man", "My Favourite Faded Fantasy"

A moody, atmospheric, and incredibly somber release full of incredibly emotional lyricism and intricate instrumentation. Definitely worth the wait.
