While no new Elliott Smith album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 2007 tour in Asia. six years ago, Elliott Smith briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “See You Later”. ‘New Moon’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. I greatly enjoyed this CD.
See You Later is outstanding work of Elliott Smith. Almost Over - To me, this is the best song on the New Moon. Either,Or is a gorgeous sing-along. Pretty Mary K (Other Version) is a fine track on any terms. From the moment you listen to Fear City you’re hooked. The first time I listened to Seen How Things Are Hard I was struck by its cool sound. Lyrics of Placeholder are precise and evocative. This song is dynamic and dramatic. When I listen to Big Decision in my car when traffic ain’t going so good. Georgia, Georgia - My least favorite song on this album. Whatever (Folk Song In C) is a great opener for New Moon. Thirteen is sonically very melodic with nice haunting verses. Elliott Smith has astounded me with this amazing track. Simple and heartfelt closing track Miss Misery (Early Version) closes New Moon on a high note. Once you hear First Timer, you will listen to it over and over. Riot Coming defines beauty, yet is as unforgiving as an astringent stone. No Elliott Smith song has come close to capturing my attention as All Cleaned Out did. Simply the finest work ever from this multi-talented singer. New Monkey is simply astounding. Looking Over My Shoulder presents the astounding mix of instruments on New Moon. This track is a killer, it just grabs you instantly. High Times - Well, here we get a bit more meaning. Angel In The Snow is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done.
