5.0 classic
Big Wreck In Loving Memory Of...
It has stood the test of time. After 11 years it still brims with clever, muscular compositions.
Big Wreck The Pleasure and the Greed
Big Wreck Albatross
This seems to be the most fun Ian has had in years and just maybe that feeling will be as contagious to the
listener. You get the sense that Albatross was an unbridled joy in creation. It jumps genres with ease while
remaining sincere wherever it lands. rEvery song is different in texture, space, tone and feel, yet they hang
together through their superior melodic quality, sophisticated composition and "tight but loose" approach to
production. There's hard and soft, dark and light and enough memorable hooks to keep you listening for
years.rThe reverence & reference span generations of music. Ian has absorbed much and the band is able to
deploy the pieces he's loved in fresh new ways while keeping genuine. rThere are multiple tracks which
cover the entire Big Wreck/Thornley catalog in their appeal. Fans of each phase will have something to sink
their teeth into and there's even some exciting new ground being turned over, so get ready for layers,
crunch, muscle, texture, nuance, beauty, hooks and funk!rThis is a homage to what was the cream of the
early 80's. Big wreck has officially begun to mine what was singularly unique from that silly (IMO) decade
and the results are amazing. Perhaps my favorite track on a stellar album. I've listened thousands of times
in the last year and it still rocks!
Big Wreck Ghosts
The Raconteurs Consolers of the Lonely

4.5 superb
