BLACKFIELD II

Very much an improvement from the last release! When I heard the Preview for this album, I was expecting to be disappointed. Oh was I surprised! Another set of 10 beautifully crafted Blackfield songs. A lot more Aviv on here, whose writing style I've grown to adore. (Although, his voice still isn't the best!) Although, my two favorite songs were written by Wilson, Once, and My Gift of Silence. My third favorite is Epidemic. This album features some more great lyrics, also. The only improvement I'd like for this album is that I'd like to see at least one calmer song, maybe just acoustic guitars or a piano or something. To me everything just seemed a little over the top. But otherwise, not a masterpiece, but certainly a well thought out album.
