Review

By UK freelance writer Andrew Ellis, for Indie Monkey:

It is perhaps entirely appropriate that Rob Seals' press biography not only lists his notable achievements as an independent musician, but also details his career as an English teacher. Because on `A Revolution of One', Seals demonstrates that music and education are strongly bound together. Most of Seals' superbly written, performed and produced songs deal with personal and collective lessons learned, intertwining thought-provoking, intelligent lyrics with a strong sense of melody, and the fact that various members of Vertical Horizon and Evan Olson's band help out on numerous tracks speaks volumes about his talent. The title track is one such song to benefit from the contributions of Vertical Horizon's Ed Toth and demonstrates exactly what Seals' music is all about with a distinct Paul Simon influence and a pinch of the Dave Matthews band sound.

Already it's clear he isn't shy to tackle strong lyrical concerns and this is reaffirmed on the excellent `Generation Why', exploring the labelling of the so-called Generation X. Despite the weighty content, the songs are undeniably melodic which makes the presence of an artist with something interesting to say even more welcome. Nowhere is this more evident than on the infectious jangle pop of `Jenny Millennium', the stop-start rock-pop of `In Our Time' and the acoustic pop of `The Key'.

The depth of Seals' music is a trademark of the whole album, but the standout track amongst a whole collection of gems is `A Few Repairs', a rootsy, melodic tune that demonstrates a lyrical tangent reminiscent of Mary Chapin Carpenter's brilliant `This Shirt'. However clichéd it may sound, Seals is more concerned with the message of his music rather than the reward it can bring and that's a lesson worth remembering in the hollow pop landscape of 2001.
