Product Description

From Amazon.com

If innovation is the yardstick by which you measure the worth of a rock band, Sister Hazel won't measure up very well. The Gainesville, Florida, septet is the very definition of a mainstream jangle-pop band, and you've heard their brand of music before, most recently from the likes of Hootie & the Blowfish, Edwin McCain, matchbox twenty, and Third Eye Blind. But in terms of sheer tunefulness and the way their melodies and lyrics lodge in your frontal lobe, Sister Hazel's songs on Fortress can make efforts by the other bands seem pale in comparison. The group's third album leads with "Change Your Mind," a feel-good summer song if ever there was one. Simple, straightforward guitar-based tunes like "Shame on Me," "Fortress," "Save Me," and "Champagne High" (featuring Indigo Girl Emily Saliers) ring with high harmonies and hook-filled choruses. If nothing else, Sister Hazel proves that it's not necessary to reinvent the wheel every time a band puts out a record. --Daniel Durchholz

5.0 out of 5 stars 男のLove Song, 2004/3/1
最近のいわゆる歌モノは、全体の幸せ、平和、前向きと言ったキーワードが目に付くが、Sister Hazelが歌うのは極めて個人的な感情、それも必ずしも前向きとは言えない内容の曲が多い。
しかし、KenとAndrewの2人のVocalは痛いくらいに心に染みる感情をむき出しにする。素朴で飾り気の無いその楽曲は一人の人間としての苦悩を表現する。

「Champagne High」は結婚しようとする彼女の幸せを望むが昔を忘れられない自分がいる、しかしそのために去ろうとする男の気持ちを表現していて、同じような経験があるだけにイントロのギターから気持ちが入ってしまいます。「Thanck You」では1stアルバムから聴けるSister Hazel節も健在。最後の「Fortress」はLiveで聴きたい感じの曲。
ジャンルで言うと、Country,Folk,Rock(Jungle Rock)ということになりそうですが、そういうことを考えずに普通のPop Songの感じで聴いてもらった方が曲の良さがわかると思います。
女性の気持ちを表現したLove Songは多いですが、男性の気持ちを巧みに表現したこのアルバムはぜひ聴いて欲しい1枚です。
