Amazon.com Three years after the experimental and not-always-successful Come on Now Social, the Indigo Girls return to a more traditional framework with the acoustic-based Become You. A deft melding of folk, rock, and pop--and laced with Latin and soul around the edges--Become You gets to the heart of what Amy Ray (the rocking half) and Emily Saliers (the gentler half) do best: chronicle the complexities of love and socio-sexual politics from a feminist viewpoint. While the seductive and full-bodied melodies leave plenty of expanse for the duo's gauzy, hand-in-glove harmonies, the majority of the repertoire here carries an undercurrent of dissatisfaction and anxiety, whether about the outcome of a rocky love affair ("Moment of Forgiveness"), the still-extant racism in the South ("Become You"), or the ultimate fate of the Mexican women who fight for change with the Zapatistas ("Nuevas Senoritas"). Poignant, thought provoking, and beautifully crafted, with rapt attention to the interplay of instruments as well as voices, Become You finds Ray and Saliers back in top form and as relevant in 2002 as at the start of their 15-year career. --Alanna Nash Similar CDs

Member CD Reviews Mary B. (JavaJuice) from BENTON HARBOR, MI Reviewed on 12/31/2006... Definitely one of my favorite cd's. I don't think that there is really any tracks on this one that I don't like - Collecting You being my favorite. A definite must if you like folksy/rock music.
CD ReviewsRedeemed A. Sweeney | Weare, NH USA | 10/11/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have been a long-time Indigo Girls fan, but after my purchase of "Come on now Social" in 1999, I was very dissapointed. I almost didnt buy "Become You" because of it but boy, am I glad I did! It is second only to "Swamp Ophelia" in my opinion, and I am so impressed by Amy Ray's songwriting. So, if you weren't crazy about "Come on now Social," dont let that stop you from buying this CD, it's excellent!!" Disappointing multichannel SACD Impetigo | Baltimore, MD | 10/04/2007 (3 out of 5 stars) "I've been listening to this SACD for awhile now, and the biggest disappointment with the multichannel layer is that there is not much coming out of the surround channels besides percussion. The front three channels are nicely mixed and create a soundstage effect sonically, but the surround channels consistently are disappointing. If you like feeling surrounded by drums, then you will enjoy this one. Pales in comparison to great SACDs like Dark Side of the Moon, Avalon, Boys and Girls, and the Elton John albums. Still, it's better than nothing, and the audio quality is noticeably better than the standard red book CD."
