Description:
As the title suggests, Lloyd Cole delivers an album that mixes sadness delicately with a revitalizing happiness. His songs meld with an exceptionally sunny day or as the rain pours down outside. He twists forgotten youthful dreams with afterthoughts of Scarlet Johansson. Entwining leaving lovers and the grateful thoughts left behind, Cole is heartbreaking and mending all at once. For over 20 years Lloyd Cole, first with the Commotions then solo, has altered style and approach to music leaving a trail of beautiful albums to which Antidepressant is a proud addition. A cult favorite compared with Leonard Cohen, Morrissey, N
As the title suggests, Lloyd Cole delivers an album that mixes sadness delicately with a revitalizing happiness. His songs meld with an exceptionally sunny day or as the rain pours down outside. He twists forgotten youthful dreams with afterthoughts of Scarlet Johansson. Entwining leaving lovers and the grateful thoughts left behind, Cole is heartbreaking and mending all at once. For over 20 years Lloyd Cole, first with the Commotions then solo, has altered style and approach to music leaving a trail of beautiful albums to which Antidepressant is a proud addition. A cult favorite compared with Leonard Cohen, Morrissey, Nick Cave and Elvis Costello, ColeÂ's gift as a lyricist is on full display in Â"The Young Idealists,Â"Â"NYC SunshineÂ" and the inside jokiness of Â"Everysong.Â" The title track is the apex of his combination of joy/despair, as Â"AntidepressantÂ" jumps through the tangles of life with chemically induced smiles. There is even a beautiful cover of Moby GrapeÂ's Â"I Am Not Willing.Â" All songs were written by Lloyd Cole except Â"I Am Not WillingÂ" by Peter Lewis, and Â"Slip AwayÂ" by Neil Clark & Lloyd Cole.
