CD ReviewsTotally saw this coming John Woods | Hawthorne, NJ USA | 01/26/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "Archer Prewitt was poised to put out an album of this consistent quality. While he and his accomplished band have been brilliant at times, they always seemed to leave me feeling there was something missing. This record finally fills in all the blanks and is a genuinely brilliant piece. It really captures everything that I've felt that Archer Prewitt has been capable of. simple complex dark light silk sandpaper war peace beginning end fresh rotten you've been spiked I assure anyone who reads this that Archer Prewitt - Wilderness is an emotion" It keeps getting better.... Thaddeus James | Arkansas | 02/09/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is possibly a "perfect" album. Now before you roll your eyes, notice the quotes around perfect. Those mean that I really like the "Chicago" sound found in most Sea and Cake/Sam Prekop/Tortise/Archer Prewitt etc. records. But this one has all the right elements. The arrangements, the production, and the vibe of the album all feel so right. This is one of those albums that will soak into the fabric of your life over the next few months. It becomes your personal soundtrack. Only a few rare albums can affect you so that in years to come if you hear the songs again you will get that "feeling" you had when you were first listening to them. I believe this is one of those albums." Wow, wow, wow, I'm blown away Crumbly | Madison, NJ USA | 07/08/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "At first I found this album a bit dull and samey, due to the slightly folksy sound, off-kilter guitar chords and multidirectional song structure.
I'm so thankful I kept this in my record rotation. When the songs finally click with you, it's a real thrill. For me, it happened with the latter half of the disc. The songs Cheap Rhyme, O Lord, Without You and Wilderness opened up and revealed stunning beauty. Although it's a different sound, the hidden surprises remind me of how I felt when I finally fell for Love's "Forever Changes."" |
