Review title: The lameness of the title...
Product review: perfectly reflects the caliber of music contained on this record. It's unfortunate because Dar Williams was once one of the most intelligent songwriters around. Now it sounds like she's writing the kind of music a songwriter writes when he or she has to fulfill a recording contract. Nowhere here is the fiercely individual music heard on "The Honesty Room," "Mortal City" and sometimes on "End of the Summer." It all sounds generic, overproduced and heartless. "The Green World" was disappointing, but not as bland as this. Dar Williams may be trying to gain new fans with this more "accessible" sound, but she's losing this one. Dar, baby, come on home.
