Ryan Adams most anticipated release in years steps into the limelight with no intentions of leaving it again.

Another masterpiece from the inimitable Mr. Adams. Rebounding from his overlooked (but quite masterful) album of Taylor Swift covers, "Prisoner" finds Ryan in his element as a unique songwriter. As with all of his best work to date, this album's big theme is heartbreak. But his loss is our gain. His much publicized divorce from Mandy Moore must have been the fuel that ignited this fiery and robust album. From the record's title track to tunes like "Doomsday" this album reaffirms my belief in the artistry and poignant composition skills of my Ryan.

The three singles from this album that are already released made me feel very skeptical about this
album, and so far I don't think I was wrong. It is good, it's just not great. Ashes & Fire was a
return to form, and the self titled was a supersonic push towards the new Ryan. But this feels
like it got so caught up in the ethereal, misty sound it gives off that it doesn't know where it's
going. The lyrics feel more obvious than usual too. Highlights of the album are definitely;
Prisoner, Haunted House, Doomsday and Broken Anyway. Solid album, just not from DRA. - *EDIT* I
have listened to it a little bit more and it's actually pretty good. Still not as good as his
previous efforts, but like most Ryan albums, it'll grow on me and it will be a 5 in no time.
