August 10, 2009 Earworm



First, the good news. Those who have waited for a Pete Yorn album that follows through on all that was promised on "Musicforthemorningafter" can stop waiting. "Back & Fourth" is the aptly titled album and not only is it better than the last two but, it's damn close to being as good as the first. With his day in the life - where the day got progressively duller, apparently - trilogy behind him, and Rick Rubin doing that sharp focus thing Rubin-esque thing he does, I'm finally finding myself with a new favorite track each time I listen. Right now, I'm stuck on "Close", the sort of romantic promises ballad that Yorn does so well.

And now, the bad news. Pete Yorn is supposedly working on an album with Scarlett Johansson.
