My Morning Jacket Artist Snapshot:

Kentucky combo My Morning Jacket stands halfway between indie-rock and alt-country, combining twangy, rural sounds with a thick guitar-and-drums onslaught occasionally leavened by soaring neo-shoegazer textures. Singer Jim James's Neil Young-like voice and poetic lyrics ride atop murky, earthy tracks full of portent. The band started to generate a buzz with their second album, AT DAWN, then became rock-mag poster boys with 2003's IT STILL MOVES, and were given a place in the new-millennium rock canon with 2005's critically acclaimed Z.

Review

Spin (1/02, p.109) - "...Auteurist Jim James channels a fondness for Neil Young into a burned-out basement vision of 21st-century dread and reverb-drenched heartache..."
Uncut (3/03, p.97) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...At its epicentre is James' remarkable delivery, as oddly beautiful as The Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne..."
CMJ (7/2/01, p.22) - "...Throbs with lonesome-walk-home-on-a-gravel-road emotion....Don't fight the desire to lay back on the grass and stare at the sky..."
No Depression (7-8/01, p.127) - "...A highly rewarding album..."
Mojo (Publisher) (4/03, p.96) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...An absolute treat....The sound is old, but the hurt is fresh. Perhaps that is the essence of country..."

Title Note

My Morning Jacket includes: Jim James (vocals, guitar).

Contains 14 tracks.

My Morning Jacket's second album, AT DAWN, builds on the twangy rock of THE TENNESSEE FIRE, while expanding the Kentucky band's sound in numerous directions. The opening title track eases into a dreamy refrain that recalls shoegazer groups of the 1990s, while the following track, "Lowdown," floats along on chiming guitars and a poppy '60s-inspired vibe. "Phone Went West" features an oddly fitting light reggae feel, which is completely contrasted by the fierce Sabbath-like guitar riffs on "Strangulation." Remaining true to the band's Southern roots, MMJ's down-home aesthetic is showcased on the extended blues jam "Honest Man" and Skynyrd-esque "Just Because I Do." Throughout the album and its many moods, the common thread is the distinctive, keening voice of frontman Jim James, as best featured on the gorgeously spare "Bermuda Highway." An accomplished and dynamic record, AT DAWN lays down the blueprint for My Morning Jacket's breakthrough album, IT STILL MOVES.
