Elliott Smith

{ review culled from the indiecater archives, album rated 7/10 } While the instances of stunted creativity abound when an artist decides to go solo, Elliott Smith proved to be a glorious exception to the rule. Coming from the Dandy Warhols neck of the woods (Portland, Oregan) where infectious hooks seem to habitually blossom on the trees it is no surprise that a cursory listen to Figure 8 reveals a smattering of sweet melodies that would have the makers of marmalade clambering to sign him up for their next ad campaign. Elliot Smith started out as twin singer/songwriting (with Neil Gust) in Heatmiser who went on to release 2 reasonable albums in 'Dead Air', 'Cop and Speeder' before Smith decided that going it alone was the way forward.

Not only is that rawness what caused so many to fall in love with Elliott Smith to begin with, but it is also what makes us fall back in love on New Moon. Many of the outtakes do not feature outside musicians, and the result is a medley of poetry that can break your heart if you’re enough of a fan. New Moon reminds us of the artist’s essential humanity that got a little forgotten in all his surrounding hype.
