Ryan Adams & The Cardinals — Cardinology

in
By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) October 31, 2008 12:02 pm
Part of the problem with Ryan Adams & The Cardinals' Cold Roses, as great as it was, was that it was two discs of music clocking in at more than 80 minutes. Cardinology is like a more focused Cold Roses — it's one disc with jammy material and a few more anthemic tracks thrown in. As batshit insane as Adams is, he's a hell of a songwriter. Sure...

Ryan Adams — Easy Tiger

in
By Matt Reeder (CHARTattack) July 3, 2007 12:27 pm
Ryan Adams returns to more straightforward, fan-friendly territory on Easy Tiger, his first proper full-length since 29 capped off his trio of releases in 2005. While last year saw the prolific, shape-shifting songwriter tackle hip-hop, punk rock and electronica with a slew of oddly named online releases via his website, this 13-song disc is...

Ryan Adams — 29

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) January 3, 2006 3:46 pm
Adams pulled it off: three albums in one year, and 29 completes the monumental task with quiet dignity. The singer-songwriter is without Cardinals for this outing, and he worked with longtime producer Ethan Johns (Heartbreaker and Gold) to craft this achingly poignant and spare nine-track collection. With the exception of the rockabilly-blues...

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals — Jacksonville City Nights

in
By Elizabeth Chorney-Booth (CHARTattack) October 4, 2005 2:36 pm
When Ryan Adams announced that his band The Cardinals would release a trilogy of albums this year, few people expected anything good — Adams has pulled these kinds of tricks before and failed miserably. Which is why it’s so surprising that this, the second installment, is Adams’ best album in years. A mix of his Whiskeytown alt.country roots...

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals — Cold Roses

By David McPherson (CHARTattack) May 17, 2005 1:42 pm
One certainty when it comes to Ryan Adams is the fact that this musical chameleon likes to keep his fans guessing. After releasing a plethora of discs in the past couple of years, Adams returns with the first of three albums planned for 2005 — a double disc no less. Many diehard Adams fans were disappointed with the troubadour's past experiments...

Ryan Adams — Love Is Hell Pt. 2

By Elizabeth Chorney-Booth (CHARTattack) December 19, 2003 11:37 am
After slogging through Ryan Adams’ two releases last month, the "official" Rock ‘N’ Roll and the first half of the rejected full-lengther Love Is Hell — both of which were disappointing on different levels — Love Is Hell Pt. 2 arrives without a whole lot of expectations. Along with last month’s EP, Love Is Hell Pt. 2 does not comprise...

Ryan Adams — Gold

in
By Chris Burland (CHARTattack) September 25, 2001 10:13 pm
Former Whiskeytown leader and budding alt.country bad boy, Ryan Adams has finally released a post-band album. Adams did release a solo album, Heartbreaker, in the autumn of 2000, but that record was a rushed affair, recorded in less than two weeks with a bare minimum of instrumentation, which was the crux of its charm. With the latest record,...
