Our Take

Neil Young's latest offering, "The Times," is a delightful blend of nostalgia and protest, with the legendary folk rocker taking on the current political climate with his signature charm and wit. From the opening track, "Alabama," Young's haunting vocals are a powerful reminder of his enduring talent and unmatched storytelling ability.

The album's standout track, "Ohio," is a chilling indictment of police brutality and political corruption, with Young's raw guitar work and emotive vocals cutting straight to the heart. "Southern Man" sees Young digging into the roots of racism and inequality, with his scathing lyrics leaving a lasting impact.

While "The Times" may not be as groundbreaking as some of Young's earlier work, it still showcases his undeniable skill as a songwriter and performer. The stripped-down production and intimate arrangements lend a sense of intimacy to the album, making it feel like Young is performing in your living room.

Overall, "The Times" is a welcome addition to Neil Young's vast and varied discography, with the musician proving once again that he is a true master of his craft. Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to Young's music, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let Neil Young's timeless melodies wash over you.

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.
