Our Take

Neil Young's latest offering, "The Times," is a delightful departure from the folk-rock legend's usual sound. Filled with politically charged lyrics and haunting melodies, this album is a testament to Young's enduring relevance in today's tumultuous world.

From the opening track, "Alabama," with its scathing critique of racism in America, to the closing ballad, "Little Wing," a poignant reflection on love and loss, Young takes the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions. His raspy vocals and intricate guitar work are as captivating as ever, proving that age has only sharpened his musical prowess.

Standout tracks include the jangly "Ohio River," a catchy anthem for the working class, and the dreamy "Homegrown," a nostalgic ode to simpler times. Young's signature wit and wisdom shine through in every lyric, making "The Times" a must-listen for fans old and new.

While some may lament the absence of Young's trademark harmonica solos, this stripped-down approach allows his songwriting to take center stage. The raw, unfiltered sound of the album only serves to highlight Young's unparalleled talent as a storyteller and musician.

In conclusion, "The Times" is a masterful addition to Neil Young's extensive discography. With its timeless themes and infectious melodies, this album proves that even in the ever-changing landscape of music, Young remains a true icon. Treat your ears to this musical masterpiece and let Neil Young guide you through "The Times."

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.
