Our Take

Neil Young's latest offering, Storytone, is a musical rollercoaster that takes listeners on a journey through an eclectic mix of genres. From folk to jazz to good old rock 'n' roll, this album has it all. Young's distinctive vocals and heartfelt lyrics are front and centre, proving once again why he is a legend in the industry.

The standout tracks on Storytone are where Young's raw emotion shines through. "Who's Gonna Stand Up?" is a powerful protest anthem that captures the spirit of activism, while "Glimmer" showcases Young's tender side with its intimate acoustic arrangement. Each song feels like a personal confession from the artist, drawing listeners in with its sincerity.

However, Storytone is not without its missteps. Some of the tracks feel a bit overproduced, losing some of the authenticity that Young is known for. The orchestral arrangements on certain songs can be overwhelming, detracting from the poignant lyrics and melodies at the heart of the album.

Overall, Neil Young's Storytone is a bold and ambitious endeavour that showcases the artist's range and versatility. While not without its flaws, the album is a testament to Young's enduring talent and creativity. Fans of the legendary singer-songwriter will find plenty to love here, making Storytone a must-listen for any music enthusiast.

About the artist

Neil Young

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.
