Our Take

The Silver Jews' Early Times album is a delightful romp through indie rock's quirky landscape, like stumbling upon a hidden gem in your local charity shop. This compilation of early recordings showcases the band's raw talent, wit, and off-kilter charm, providing a glimpse into their formative years before hitting the big time.

From the opening track "I'm Getting Back into Getting Back into You," frontman David Berman's wry lyrics and distinct vocals immediately draw you in like a moth to a flame. The lo-fi production adds to the album's charm, giving it that rough-around-the-edges feel that we've come to love from the Silver Jews.

Tracks like "Jackson Nightz" and "The Unchained Melody" showcase the band's ability to blend country twang with indie rock sensibilities, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. Berman's storytelling prowess shines through on every track, weaving tales of love, loss, and the absurdities of everyday life with a whimsical touch.

Overall, Early Times is a must-listen for fans of the Silver Jews and indie rock enthusiasts alike. It's a time capsule of an era when lo-fi was king and authenticity reigned supreme. So sit back, pour yourself a drink, and let the Silver Jews transport you to a simpler time when music was pure and unadulterated. Cheers to Early Times!
