Too prone to anthems.......2002-06-15

I heard the song "Junkie Girl," on the Progressive channel of Music Choice, the music that comes from Cable TV. It really is a great song. It's dark and really cool. It sounds a lot like Daniel Lanois. It's the last song on the album, which makes me think that this is the kind of music McDermott would put out were he not under the thumb of the label to produce the "adult rock" anthems which comprise the rest of this CD. I feel this album is over-produced and completely trite. Do not buy it if you dislike corporate radio. It is filled with a lot of self-righteous musical proclamations. The overall effect is too dramatic. If you like "Junkie Girl," snap up any Daniel Lanois CDs you can find.

wake up england.......2001-09-25

Why when we have music of this quality do we have to listen to the same old stuff on the radio,tired out old stars going thru the motions.Wake up capital,virgin,bbc etc play some fresh music that people can enjoy.Albums of this quality deserve to be played and shared with the people of england.

Best album you've never heard.......2001-05-09

This cd offers the best music on the rock/adult-alternative scene today. Michael's incredibly deep and intelligent lyrics will move you to your soul. From the heart-breaking "Leave Her To Heaven" to the insperational "Hand of the Hunter" this is an album of great power. Buy it!

What can I say . . ........2000-10-29

... that hasn't already been said? The man is a poet, a genius, an amazing songwriter, musician, lyricist. He writes stories about people he knows and people he envisions, and within their struggles we see reflections of ourselves. From "Annie"'s heartbreaking strings and imagery to "Bourbon Blue"'s magical swirling sound (thanks Mary!) to the rocking redemption of "Getting Off the Dime", this album is worth every penny you pay for it ... Visit Michael's website at www.michael-mcdermott.com for more information -- I'm a writer, and no words can do this album or artist justice.
