Our Take

Ah, Neil Young, the granddaddy of folk rock, the godfather of grunge, the maestro of the melancholic guitar riff. His 1979 album "Rust Never Sleeps" is a testament to his enduring legacy in the music world, and boy does it pack a punch.

Right from the get-go, Young grabs you by the ears and demands your attention with the blistering opener "My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)". With its infectious melody and raw, gritty vocals, this track sets the tone for the rest of the album - a sonic rollercoaster of emotions and musical prowess.

Tracks like "Thrasher" and "Pocahontas" showcase Young's lyrical genius, as he weaves tales of love, loss, and rebellion with an unapologetic honesty that is both refreshing and captivating. The haunting beauty of his acoustic guitar work only serves to amplify the impact of his words, creating a poignant and powerful listening experience.

But it's not all introspective musings and heart-wrenching ballads - oh no. Young also knows how to rock out with the best of them, as evidenced by the raucous energy of tracks like "Welfare Mothers" and "Sedan Delivery". These songs hit hard and fast, leaving you breathless and exhilarated, desperate for more.

In short, "Rust Never Sleeps" is a masterpiece of an album that showcases Neil Young at the height of his powers. It's raw, it's honest, and it's utterly mesmerising. So sit back, crank up the volume, and let yourself be whisked away on a journey through the mind and music of a true legend. Trust me, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Neil Young and Crazy Horse

For nearly six decades, Neil Young has been a enigma in the music industry, consistently pushing boundaries and defying categorization. Born in Toronto, Canada in 1945, Young first rose to fame as a member of the iconic folk-rock band Buffalo Springfield in the 1960s before embarking on a prolific solo career that has earned him a reputation as one of the most influential musicians of his generation. With his distinctive, reedy voice and virtuosic guitar playing, Young has explored a wide range of musical styles over the years, from country and folk to grunge and electronic. His songwriting is equally eclectic, touching on themes of love, loss, politics, and the environment with a raw honesty and emotional depth that few artists can match. Young's massive catalog includes classic albums like "After the Gold Rush," "Harvest," and "Rust Never Sleeps," as well as more experimental works like "Trans" and "Arc." His live performances are legendary for their energy and spontaneity, with Young often switching up his setlist on a whim and stretching songs out into epic jams. Despite his status as a rock icon, Young has never been afraid to speak his mind, whether it's through his music or his outspoken activism. From campaigning for environmental causes to critiquing the music industry itself, Young has never shied away from controversy, earning him a reputation as a true maverick in the world of music. With his restless creative spirit and boundless curiosity, Neil Young continues to inspire and surprise audiences around the world, proving that age is just a number when it comes to making great music. Long may he reign as the king of cool.
