Swallow the Sea

"Matthew Perryman Jones's follow-up to "Throwing Punches in the Dark" is equally as fiery and powerful. Highlights from the album include the rocking "Without A Clue," the beautiful "Amelia" (which you can literally listen to on repeat for an hour and get lost in the richness of the music), the angry, evocative "Motherless Child," and the title track, which, once it builds to the last three minutes of "where can you go? can you swallow the sea" feels like you're being enveloped in an ocean--of amazing artistry. MPJ is a terrific musician and vocalist. Loving this cd.
