, August 26, 2002Reviewer: jpetersen1975 - See all jpetersen1975's reviewsif you somehow stumbled on this page not knowing neko yet, do yourself a favor and turn off the computer and go buy this or any or her albums...NOW! if you already know her, i'll tell ya, this is not quite the mind-blowing masterpiece that "furnace room lullabys" was, but after a couple listens, you realize how good it really is. also go see the live show if you can, she's almost better live!

Pro Reviews: Blacklisted
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews While the spare and often haunted sound of Neko Case's home-recorded Canadian Amp EP seemed at the time like a late-night detour from alt-country's leading songbird of the North, listening to Case's first full-length album following Canadian Amp suggests it may have been the first step along a new and different path for her. Black Listed is a considerably darker and more understated affair than The Virginian or Furnace Room Lullaby, and its sometimes stark, sometimes elegant 3 a.m. sound is informed as much by pop, jazz, and blues flavors as the country western-slanted melodies of her first two solo albums. Which isn't to say Black Listed is a total departure for Neko Case; her big, bold, but silky smooth voice is still a thing of beauty, and if anything, she's still learning more remarkable things she can do with it, with the result being some of her finest and most insightful performances to date. And Case continues to grow as a songwriter; penning most of the album all by herself, Case is a lyricist willing to answer to both her heart and her head, and she had a fine ear for a melody to boot. With Joey Burns and John Convertino of Calexico, Howe Gelb of Giant Sand, Dallas Good of the Sadies, and Kelly Hogan all contributing to Black Listed, Neko Case has crafted an album whose quiet drift only adds to its power; it's hard to say if hanging out with Nick Cave on tour had much of an influence on her, but this disc sounds a bit like Case's version of The Boatman's Call, a personal exploration of the heart and soul that proves sad and beautiful can often walk hand in hand. Highly recommended. - Mark Deming, All Music Guide |

Pros: Production, arrangements, singing
Cons: none
This album is fantastic start to finish. I actually like it better than the highly acclaimed "Furnace room lullabies". So that's it... just didn't like the idea of it getting overshadowed by the other fella that reviewed it. Enjoy!
