Joseph Arthur - Crazy Rain EP

Posted by Administrator

April 23, 2008 |

Since I am a big fan of most of the material I hear from Joseph Arthur, you will probably get coverage of all of his releases this year, even though there are loads. Arthur is releasing a new EP every month for 4 months leading up to the release of a full length album, Temporary People, in September, that will also employ his backing band, The Lonely Astronauts.

The first EP was brilliant, and a return to the pure singer/songwriter in Joe that gained him the majority of his fans in the first place, this one is, well, different. While I have to admit I have only listened to it a few times all the way through so far, I have to side with EP #1, Could We Survive, as a personal choice.

The new EP, Crazy Rain, sees JA doing his rock star thing alot more, similar to some songs you heard on his full length from last year, Let’s Just Be. So if tunes like “Cocaine Feet” and “Let’s Just Be” were your thing, than this EP is for you. Either way though, the song I have to share from the new EP is a nice one no matter what style of Arthur you prefer. It is called “Nothin 2 Hide” (not to be confused with “Too Much To Hide” from 2006’s Nuclear Daydream) and features former Afghan Whig and current Gutter Twin Greg Dulli on backing vocals. Download is below.
