About Barricades & Brickwalls
Product Description Barricades and Brickwalls -+ Not Pretty Enough -+ On a Bad Day -+ Runaway Train A Little Bit Lonesome -+ Nullarbor Song -+ A Million Tears -+ Still Feeling Blue This Mountain -+ Crossfire -+ Falling Into You -+ If I Were You -+ I Still Pray -+ Not Pretty Enough Amazon.com The hard-edged title cut kicking off this disc suggests that Kasey Chambers might be exploring an entirely different frontier than she did on her 2000 debut, The Captain, but the dozen tracks that follow are much more in line with the sparkling country-folk of her first album. That's good, because at this early stage in her career, there's no reason for Chambers to stray from her obvious strengths: simple but honest lyricism set to tastefully twangy instrumentation and spiked by her alternately sweet and sassy voice rising straight from the South (even if, in her case, it's South Australia). Various guest vocalists add breadth to the proceedings, with results that range from slightly disappointing ( on "On a Bad Day") to effectively reflective ( on "I Still Pray") to wondrously evocative ( on "Runaway Train") to downright transcendent ( on "Million Tears"). Mostly, though, it's Chambers's confidence and charm that shines brightly and clearly. --Peter Blackstock
