Review

Spin (p.100) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[W]ith milky keyboard washes and found-sound accents that give the music a darker, dreamier depth."
Entertainment Weekly (p.67) - "[I]t's beautifully committed music -- the kind that's as essential now as it has ever been." -- Grade: A
Uncut (p.104) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The arrangements...are finely wrought, her vocals are precise and her sharply honed lyrics effectively balance the personal and the political."
Down Beat (p.82) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[S]he sings her typically intelligent and penetrating lyrics with a relaxed passion."
No Depression (pp.126-127) - "Her acoustic guitar playing is mesmerizing, as usual, but her melodic fills on electric guitar and keyboards, along with her percussion work, brings some color to this group of songs."

Title Note

Personnel: Ani DiFranco; Saint Claude, Mike Napolitano, Todd Sickafoose.

Recording information: Sugar Bowl, New Orleans, Louisiana (2006).

If Ani DiFranco's ever-lengthening discography can be categorized into albums that take chances and those that tread on familiar ground, REPRIEVE, which largely scales back the fuller sound of 2005's KNUCKLE DOWN to DiFranco, her guitar, and Jim Stickafoose on bass, belongs to the latter set. Its recording interrupted by Hurricane Katrina, REPRIEVE retains the somber, self-reflective tone that characterized the period immediately after the disaster; as usual, DiFranco's stream-of-heart lyrics touch on every aspect of her world, from her appearance (as on "Half-Assed") to George W. Bush ("Millennium Theater") and more generalized post-millennial angst ("A Space"). The clean-but-not-spotless production by DiFranco stays out of the way to let the words connect, and, more often than not, they do.
