Your Turn
''Your Turn'' is a studio album by American guitarist Marc Ribot's Ceramic Dog which was released in April 2013 on Northern Spy Records. Reception Metacritic assigned album an aggregate score of 88 out of 100 based on 5 critical reviews. The Allmusic review by Sean Westergaard awarded the album 4½ stars out of 5, stating, "The whole album is a blast. Ribot's vocals have never been anything to write home about, but they suit this material perfectly. Instrumentally, this band can do nearly anything. '' Party Intellectuals'' may have set the bar high, but ''Your Turn'' is definitely a worthy follow-up". PopMatters' John Garratt rated the album 8 out of 10, saying, "''Your Turn'' is the result of more than one stab at nailing down the band’s true sound. This could explain why the album, even in its “fun” instrumental moments, comes out sounding so punchy and cynical. With caustic properties that could rival your favorite punk record, Your Turn will leave you exhausted". Writing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
