Synopsis

Album Description
"The Czars seem determined to create the most enrapturing, enormous sounds around. So far they are succeeding, with rapturous reviews for their two albums. Grant?s voice is big on record; live, it is the size of the Rockies themselves. This man looks like the Aphex Twin with pigtails, but sounds like Morrissey dueting with Roy Orbison in a wind tunnel. As an awed hush descends, he loses himself in electro-country-bluesy songs about unrequited love and stolen childhood." ? The Guardian The Czars make their eagerly awaited return this autumn with their superb third album 'Goodbye,' the follow-up to 'The Ugly People Vs. The Beautiful People,' which was released to great critical acclaim in Fall 2001. 'Goodbye' is filled with incredible songs notable for their rich production, incredible musicianship and, of course, John Grant?s beautiful baritone vocals, painting broad textures over dense sonic space. Lyrically, the album deals with themes of loss, regret and change.

Excellent!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Run, quickly and get this CD. At least if you like good music, not just simple 4/4 toe-tappers. Got it at Rebel, Rebel in NYC. Owner said it was great and once again he was right. Starts out making you think that it's going to be sort of 'eclectic' but then turns into one of the best CD's this year. I've seen some comparisons made, but I feel they are more Beach Boys meet RadioHead. Talk about a win-win situation. Great production, not OVER-production."
