If you haven't heard Newton Faulkner, give a listen to his new album, Hand Built By Robots. Fans of Keller Williams, ALO and Jack Johnson should check this guy out. So should folks who don’t like those guys. This is the kind of record that certain people love to hate on. I hate that attitude. Not everything has to have rough edges. You just have to dig a guy with a guitar who writes nice songs about everything from UFOs to looking like crap in pictures to people who need to smile more (a very Jack Johnsony song) Some of the songs are more ideas than fully fleshed out songs. Massive Attack fans will either love or hate his cover of “Teardrop”.
Warning: Not for the irretrievably ironic.
