Nightcrawler

Performer: Pete Yorn
Distributor: RED Distribution

Notes: On his third studio album, NIGHTCRAWLER, New Jersey-born singer-songwriter Pete Yorn offers up another assured set of pop-savvy rock tunes, this time leaning toward a more robust sound. Although the potent, riff-laden single "For Us" is one of the record's most immediately accessible tracks, Yorn presents a wide range of enjoyable tunes here, from the jangly, propulsive "Undercover" to the chiming, buoyant "Maybe I'm Right" to the spare, wistful "Broken Bottle." Throughout NIGHTCRAWLER, Yorn's expressive vocals are well showcased, whether he's crooning gently or leading a raucous guitar-driven number. For fans, this outing reaffirms the notion that Yorn is one of the better songsmiths of his generation, while newcomers to his intelligent, refreshingly straight-ahead sound will finally see what the fuss is about.

Spin (p.105) - 3.5 out of 5 -- "[B]oth the ballads and rockers hurtle forward with undeniable momentum." Entertainment Weekly (p.159) - "Yorn and his lazy-day delivery...manage to hop between dance pop and lovely synth ballads with surprising ease." -- Grade: B+ Magnet (p.112) - "[The songs] showcase the Yorn's patented marbly murmur and unerring way with a top-40 hook."
