Reviews Customer Reviews for Red Letter Days Discover them, now! Rating: If you are a The Wallflowers' huge fan like I am, then you'll probably share my frustration everytime I praize their work, even knowing few people really know about their terrific songs. But I guess it's better this way: Jakob Dylan is a complete artist, and I don't think that the mainstream would improve him. RED LETTER DAYS is full of chilling and wonderful composicions, and we can feel how energetic and inspired The Wallflowers can sound, listening every single song. If you still don't believe that you should discover them, please listen CLOSER TO YOU... it'd be a heartwarming journey, followed by EVERYBODY OUT OF THE WATER, a superb rock song. And be prepared: their last album, REBEL, SWEETHEART, is even better.
Customer Reviews for Red Letter Days Cd Long Live Rock and Roll Rating: Red Letter Days is an example of great musicianship. The song writing is powerful, and the vocals are, as always, distinct. The best part is how the whole album listens from start to finish. If you're looking for music to get deep into, this is it. It had my playing air guitar and singing along. Great fun for a 24 year old! ;)
Editorial Reviews for Red Letter Days Audio Cd Amazon.com Wallflowers frontman Jakob Dylan may have learned the art of ambiguity from his famous father, but as he opens up on the group's bittersweet fourth album he emerges as a true individual. The band's first release since the departure of guitarist Michael Ward, who came on board to make the four-million-selling 1996 album, Bringing Down the Horse, finds Dylan raking over the details of his personal life in close detail. "I think I made a mistake / I think I pushed when you said away," he sings on "If You Never Got Sick," while using blunt tracks like "Too Late to Quit" and "Health and Happiness" to get in further jabs at the woman who did him wrong. To accompany this outpouring of emotion, the band infuses its midtempo Americana with fizzing electronic effects and hard backbeats. It's the Wallflowers' most adventurous and rewarding album yet. --Jaan Uhelszki
