TIM BIRCHARD: Songs for The Reverend







The Reviews

On 10/23/08, Ignacio Blasco, a native of Spain living in Utazu, Japan wrote:

Here I send you the opinion of a musical illiterate who could hardly understand the lyrics, with the only intention of helping you. Ordered from best to worst:

Brush Strokes: Extremely relaxing. Original melody. It surprises me, it relaxes me. The rhythm of this song also gives me pleasure. Me gusta todo, MUCHO.

Will there even be a rainbow 1: I really love how you are intentionally all the time close to the cacophony in this song but you always end up respecting the rules of the music, which I don..t know well... but I clearly notice when a song breaks them and when not.

Will there even be a rainbow 2: Very original. I don..t like that organ you play at 00:50 tho. Anyway I love the bizarreness of this song, including the sudden end, which is just extremely elegant.

Canvas: Hypnotic. Pleasant. I specially enjoy the guitar on the background, and I think the electric guitar solo should be eliminated or toned down some way. Some times, some of your solos are too flashy for my taste in this and other songs.

Fish Tank Blues: The melody and the rhythm sounds too typical to me. I find this song childish.

Human in my yard: I don..t know well, but I guess it is like the typical melody designed to make happy some female teenagers of the 80..s of some small village in Utah. I don't like this song at all. It makes me vomit, specially when you go lalala. It makes me hate you. Really.

So... your music review is coming in pieces whether you like it or not.

Brush strokes - Definitely dig it, you can't go wrong with melodic instrumentals Human in my yard - Reminds me of earlier Beatles or Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd.

P.S. Do you like the Flaming Lips?

Send me your CD and I'll review the other six songs. Don't worry, I'll let you know if they stink. By the way, maybe you and your potential customers will appreciate to know that "Will there even be a rainbow Part 1"; is extremely addictive, especially after drinking half a bottle of Baron de L'Estac.

By the way, I give you five stars because your 1st 2 songs absolutely deserve them.
