专辑介绍

by Kurt Keefner

Solas succeed where other Irish bands fail: They're lively without being frenetic; Karan Casey's vocals are high and clear without being ethereal or waifish; and they manage to add texture and complexity to the many traditionals they play. Their self-titled debut contains five songs (not enough!) and eight jigs, reels, and airs. The group know how to build an instrumental up to a fevered pitch, as on &The Yellow Tinker/Cranking Out/Master Crowley's #2,& which creates fantasy swirls of accordion and fiddle before the guitar enters with its insistent rhythms. Not that all the pieces are fast: &Crested Hens& is a slow, sweet air -- a bit reminiscent of Jay Ungar or Eileen Ivers -- and &My Johnny's Gone for a Soldier& is a sweet love song about an Irish rebellion. Solas is simply one of the best, most varied albums of Irish music to come out in a long time.
