CD Reviews

Weak, uneven 2nd album

J. Swain | Chicago, IL | 09/17/2010

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I love the first album (Brave...), and I'd give it 4 stars easy. Know Better has maybe 3 solid songs on it, such as Cool Yourself, Swam, and Know Better. The rest of it is just very weak. The songs didn't grow on me over time. "The Give" is annoying, and "Trouble Was For" has an incredibly tedious melody that makes you wish it would just end. The rest of the album doesn't do anything for me.

The album has a more produced sound, if that makes sense, and seems to get away from the raw, solid content of the more bare tracks on the first album. Overall this was a huge disappointment for me, as I was really looking forward to it.

Sorry Thao! Your stuff is great, but this album let me down :( But you were awesome at Troubadour in July 2008!"

Bring your hips.

"I love this album. Every track is not perfect, but that's okay. Perfect is boring.

And in response to the other reviewer, I do not agree that you have to be going through a breakup to enjoy this album?

While the lyrics may be about heartache and the struggles that you go through while ending a relationship, the songs are ultimately upbeat and simply just make me feel good.

I cannot stop listening to this album.

I highly recommend it."

Evolution

"Love it; what else can I say. It's the next step in a great musical career. And a cameo by Andrew Bird; it doesn't get better than that - crazy whistler! If you're a fan of her previous album you're probably going to like this as much as I do."
