CD Reviews

Genious
02/04/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Now this is the production of a mind of pure genious. This man must be one of the most abstract artists out there right now (check out his book). This is most certainly not something that will hit the mainstream. It's too . . . well odd for that. This is beautifully crafted, sinfully edgy. This man is so talented that he played every instrument in this, as he did in his previous album. How many of those bands out there can claim to that?"
Real music, rather than really selling out
Carly | Toronto | 06/20/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'll keep this short so that people will read it: I am a teenager stuck in a world of pop: where image is more important than message. I saw the video for no beginning no end and was intrigued...bought the cd and am so much more creatively satisfied. UNIQUE music and sound and lyrics to die for...topping it up there with my personal favourite Cat Stevens. Proud he's Canadian, extatic he's around. Go Hawksley!"
Simple and complex
C. Johannesson | Waterloo, ON Canada | 06/04/2002
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Yes, it sounds awkward, but Hawksley Workman manages to create simplicity within his complex compositions. There are definite catchy hooks and childlike songplay, but by no means is this a three-chord wonder type of songwriter. It's powerful pop (do not read powerpop) with witty lyrics, the kind of music that makes most other wanna-be songwriters think "I wish I would have thought of this idea first" and then realize that it's all not quite as simple as it appears. Although there are some strong single type material, I doubt Hawksley Workman will break through to the mainstream kids with albums like this. It's too intelligent for that. But you who feel that thick-brimmed glasses wearing artsy-fartsy types are annoying and have cramped the "smart pop" scene, might find some salvation in Hawksley Workman. I've seen the guy live once, opening for Morrissey, and it's the only time I've thoroughly enjoyed a show that was just one man and a guitar. Even though the album has full instrumentation, the songs and Hawksley's charisma are strong enough on its own."
