Weeping Willows have a new album out, but I haven't heard it yet so I figure it's a good excuse to visit some of the band's early material. It is Friday, after all. And what could be better for the Friday after Valentine's Day than a grand ol' heartbreaker like the title track to 1997's "Broken promise land". Each and every line drips with over-the-top melodrama. Take it to the bridge: "You made me cry / You make me want to die / Why, baby why? / Why did you lie?" and then driving it home with a final anguished sigh. It's so grandiose, it's almost comical. But that's the beauty of WW and a big part of what makes them so good. There are no feeble gestures here, only broad brushstrokes. It's bigger than life and a Swedish melancholy rock classic.
As for the new album "Fear & love"? They're trying to sell it as a return to form. I enjoy later-era WW, but I also agree with music.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:lcr9ke9tsq7x" target=_blank>AmG's assertion that the more they tried to discover their own identity and change their sound, the less unique they became. Regardless of whether or not they've successfully regressed, I'm still looking forward to hearing it.
