Review title: Positively 4th Rate
Product review: It takes a fair bit of critical contortionism to declare this any kind of masterwork, especially considering it comes from a man with a few genuine classics under his belt. Despite popular opinion, Dylan's lyrics here are uniformly horrid, travelling the short distance between trite and awkward with less flourish than your garden-variety Hallmark card. Melodically the songs are indistinguishable from one another, with Dylan's cracked honk blending into the thick soup of Daniel Lanois' ponderous soundscape until it sounds like one of Brian Eno's ambient albums as mewled by a goat. I'd actually prefer the goat. Do Dylan a favor and pick up a copy of "Blonde on Blonde" or "The Basement Tapes" or even "Love and Theft" instead of this over-praised steamer.
