HMV Review
The Thorns: Shawn Mullins (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, dulcimer, vihuela, keyboards, percussion); Matthew Sweet (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, baritone ukelele, vihuela, keyboards, marxophone, percussion); Pete Droge (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, ukelin, keyboards, zildjuans).
Includes limited edition bonus CD.
Additional personnel: Greg Leisz (acoustic, electric guitars, pedal steel, lap steel, & 12-string guitar, electric dulcimer); Brendan O'Brien (acoustic & electric guitars, hurdy gurdy, harmonica, keyboards, bass, percussion); Roy Bittan (piano); Jim Keltner (drums).
Recorded at Southern Tracks Studios, Atlanta, Georgia.
Any time a new "supergroup" is formed, fans of the combo's individual members are both excited and skeptical. In the case of The Thorns, these particular emotions ran especially high when it came to singer/songwriters as talented, critically lauded, and seemingly incongruous as power-pop icon Matthew Sweet, neo-folkie Shawn Mullins and Seattle rocker Pete Droge. Amazingly, the word that comes to mind upon first listen to THE THORNS is "band." Putting aside all prima donna tendencies in the service of finding a cohesive sound, the boys come up with a spectacularly lush, organic, and relaxed stylistic fusion. Recalling other extraordinary groups like Crosby, Stills & Nash and RUMORS-era Fleetwood Mac, the Thorns' delicately strummed acoustic guitars, sparkling yet rootsy production, and gorgeously full three-part harmonies paint a consistently uplifting sonic landscape that's distinctly retro, yet never purely imitative.

最近聞いたアルバムの中では断然一番いいですね。CS&Nっぽいですけど。私個人的にはマシューの色が一番薄いと感じました。ボーカルではピートが低音で目立っているし、曲調もショーン・マリンズやピート・ドロージのソロアルバムの方が近い。マシューっぽさはあまり感じなかったな。0 people agree with this review

special packageのディスク2は、”Sunset Session”といって、すべてがアコースティック・アレンジで演奏されています。通常盤を持っている人も聴くべきですよ! 昨今の音楽が忘れかけてしまったものがそこにはあります。0 people agree with this review

以外な組み合わせではあるが、これが素晴らしい出来。比較的マシューの色が濃いが、三人の声がうまい具合に重なって、極上の作品となってます。これもまた癒し系の作品です。0 people agree with this review
