Review

The change in direction which Someday My Blues Will Cover the Earth embodies may have been a gradual one for His Name Is Alive, but it may still come as a shock (although hopefully a pleasant one) for fans of the one-time Cocteau Twins-influenced art rockers. This beautifully crafted album is essentially a showcase for the sensuous and hypnotic vocals of gospel singer Lovetta Pippen. But equally, it shows off for the production work of Warn Defever. From the muted R&B backing of the "Write My Name in the Groove" to the crackling gramophone-filtered jazz of "Solitude," Warn perfectly builds on the drama and atmosphere within each heartfelt track. "One Year," with its funky bassline and infectious lyrics, is a great pop track, sounding not dissimilar to the Sugababes, but the lyrics ("if you had a year to live") still stick closely to the blues project that dominates the album. Someday My Blues Will Cover the Earth may have been 10 years in the making, but as this breathtaking collection of blues-influenced soul, jazz, and modern R&B demonstrates, good things come to those who wait. --Caroline ButlerSomeday My Blues Will Cover The Earth (4AD) is a full-blown collaboration with vocalist Lovetta Pippen, Detroit runaway whose tangled and traumatic life story lies just below the surface of the songs and go a long way to explaining the emotional impact of her singing. The artwork is designed by Vaughan Oliver. His Name Is Alive will be playing on both sides of the Atlantic to support the release of the album.
