Title: Jam packed with good songs
Product review: Phish have established themselves by the time of Hoist's release, with their prior albums: Junta, A Picture of Nectar, and Rift, three classic albums that have garnered them a significant fan-base.Now they come up with a coherent album demonstrating a keen pop sense with short, varied, radio-friendly songs following the deranged creativity of their elaborate concept album, Rift.With the first song on Rift, "Julius," Phish shows us they can do a rousing blues number with brass backing. "Axilla" is a retro rocker, and "Lifeboy" is a light insightful song. "Sample in a Jar" is an instant Phish classic, just like "Wolfman's Brother" and "Scent of a Mule."The album art on the cover of their previous album, Rift, contained illustrations of every song on that album, except for the song "Horse." A horse is therefore represented by a mule on this album, Hoist, suggesting the continuity between albums.
