The Avett Brothers [Bone Vinyl] [Barnes & Noble Exclusive]

by The Avett Brothers

Overview

After 2019's disappointing Closer Than Together, the Avett Brothers back off a bit on the political commentary and turn in a warm, reliable album that bears only their name for a title. After a decade-long stint on Rick Rubin's American imprint, the band left the major-label system, returning to Ramseur Records, their 2000s indie label. It's a bit of a homecoming and some of the songs, especially the energetic "Love of a Girl" and "Orion's Belt," hark back to that heyday, but the earnest folk-pop of their later years still dominates the set. Despite switching labels, they've retained Rubin's services; he has produced each of the band's albums since their 2009 breakthrough I and Love and You. Heartfelt and well-built songs like "Cheap Coffee" and "We Are Loved" help anchor the set, but there's an underlying banality that keeps it from greatness. Still, it's an improvement on its predecessor. ~ Timothy Monger
