The New Counting Crows album came out today. My girlfriend and I drove around doing errands and listened to it straight through twice.
I hope the digital medium doesn't destroy the album. I don't think it will. I think Wilco and The Black Crowes, and Ryan Adams, and The Counting Crows, I think they will defend the honor and the glory of the album.
Anyway, the new album is really good. It's the continuation of a story that Adam Duritz began telling us 15 years ago with August and Everything After. This is the everything after. He still battles insomnia, he still loves Maria, hates himself, wants fame without isolation, intimacy without commitment, and to believe in something beautiful.
If you're not already a fan, this album is a good place to start.
Hold Fast, (especially you Mr. Duritz)
