His later work with Cracker bears this out, and the band's 2006 release GREENLAND is Lowery's most stripped-down and straightforward to date, miles away from the grungey bombast of earlier releases. Steeped in the sounds of folk and alt-country, with a touch of indie rock thrown in for balance, GREENLAND floats gently along the surface, yet there is a deeply personal undercurrent to nearly every song on the record. Lowery's songs explore themes of loss, heartbreak, and personal upheaval in a way that feels pointedly autobiographical, giving his clever, detail-rich lyrics an added poignancy. This is particularly notable for a band that's often big on tongue-in-cheek irony, and it is this poignancy that gives GREENLAND its winning edge. Personnel: David Lowery (vocals, guitar, strings, piano, keyboards, synthesizer); Johnny Hickman (vocals, guitar); Alan Weatherhead (guitar, slide guitar, keyboards); Mark Linkous (guitar, synthesizer); David Immerglück (electric guitar); Margaret White (violin); Kenny Margolis (accordion, piano, keyboards); Craig Harmon (organ, keyboards); Lauren Hoffman (synthesizer, background vocals); Miguel Urbiztondo (drums, tabla, percussion); Frank Funaro (drums, percussion); John Morand (percussion); Casey Martin, Caitlin Cary (background vocals). Photographer: Jonathan Segel. CMJ (p.5) - "The stubborn sarcasm deep in Lowery's larnyx and the skillful veteran alt-rock instrumentation add more depth than any other surviving alt-rock also-ran..." No Depression (p.110) - "Frontman David Lowery sounds more reflective than usual as he wonders whatever happened to his California heyday..." cd ripped by dBpoweramp please seed
