Rob Thomas new album
In 1996 Matchbox 20 released their debut album. Since then front man Rob Thomas has branched out with a successful solo career. His first solo effort was "Something To Be," in 2005. Thomas demonstrated his ability to masterfully write and sing great pop style music. The record was a smash success and became a platinum best seller. After cutting another album with Matchbox 20, Rob Thomas now offers up his second solo project.
Thomas' second album titled "Cradlesong," was released on June 30th, 2009. There's nothing really new or innovative in this second solo outing. For anyone who enjoyed the first album, you'll feel right at home listening to "Cradlesong." The sound is a mix of 80's and modern pop music.
The album never gets into edgy territory. It's filled with radio friendly music. Thomas retains his up tempo and positive style of music, with a few exceptions for some less positive lyrics. These mostly deal with love issues and dysfunctional relationships. The production quality and performances here are all top notch.
Most of the album is the same stuff that we've seen from Thomas before. He does do some different things on the song "Fire On The Mountain," though. "Cradlesong," which the album was named for, is a beautiful song played on an acoustic guitar. It suits Thomas' voice well. There are 16 songs in all when you count the two bonus tracks. All of them are worthy of a lot of radio time.
The first single "Her Diamonds," is one of the best songs on the album. You're sure to hear this tune on your favorite pop radio station. This is an easy album to recommend to fans of Rob Thomas and music fans in general. It's hard to say if it will attain the success of Thomas' previous work, but it definitely is a worthy successor. - 18424
