Album Review

Flags, the third record from Brooke Fraser, was inspired by Fraser’s move to Los Angeles. It’s a well-worn singer/songwriter album, with songs that take their cues from the Lilith Fair movement and L.A.’s burgeoning Hotel Café scene. Fraser knows how to craft a sturdy pop hook, and there are many of them here — particularly during “Something in the Water,” which became her first Kiwi chart-topping hit in October 2010. Elsewhere, she stretches her boundaries by focusing on ambience and atmospheric textures, even evoking a young Fumbling Towards Ecstasy-era Sarah McLachlan during “Ice on Her Lashes.”

Customer Reviews

honest review

This is not really about the whole album it is just about the song Jack Kerouac, for all I know the rest of the album may be up or down to her usual standard I have no idea having only ever really heard what comes over the radio.
But when I heard that there was a song called Jack Kerouac on her most recent album my interest in all things Kerouac and The Beat Generation meant I had to at least give this song a listen.
I have to say of all the songs that mention or reference "Kerouac" in some way this is by far my least favorite. The end where she stammers through repeating his name is just annoying it sounds like a skipping record and you get the feeling she is repeating the name over and over just to hammer home the point that she wrote a song about one of the greatest modern writers of the 20th century. If anyone is looking for songs that cover the Kerouac subject much better I recommend 10,000 Maniac's "Hey Jack Kerouac" or Tom Waits "Jack and Neal/California here I come." I should also add that the fact this song does reference Kerouac means I did go out and by the CD. I should also stress again I have not given my full attention to the rest of the CD yet as I have other things that need to be listened to first.

Awesome
