No Refuge

Dave's review of No Refuge by Immigrant

Rating: 4/5

The new album from Immigrant is quite a gentle offering...which is exactly what I thought it was gonna be like. After all I do know about every artist working in the UK at the mo.Which comes in handy as Immigrant doesn't seem to exist on the old interweb. I typed in Immigrant and the only band called Immigrant that I saw were some cock rock looking muthercrushas from Stateside. Nothing about this sad voiced troubadour, which is a shame really. Mebbe I need to look a wee bit harder. Or maybe I should stop looking with my eyes and look with my heart. That usually works so here goes...nope, nothing yet. God I love obscure artists and as I said earlier I know about all artists in the UK and all that. I love finding out about the different record labels and really love being seduced by the new bands...I don't actually. I'd much rather the dream I had came true, in which loads of bands that I like and some which I don't were put in a massive ditch and were culled like cows in the awful foot and mouth outbreak that happened a few years ago. I'd much rather be at home with a jar of swarfega and a few copies of Amateur Photographer, but you know life has its own way. This new album by Immigrant is as every bit as touching and lachrymose as his previous efforts. It's a collection of introspective sounding songs, all done with a sincerity and fondness that you might associate with Elliot Smith or a less annoying Jeff Buckley. All the tracks are quite the emotional journey, my particular fave at the moment being track three, the rather moving "Dengue Ba Jengue" which uses some really nice sounding keyboards to full effect. The chord changes in this song are great. The rest of the album is also rather fine. I reckon this is his best record so far, and if you like gently strummed slow burning soulful songs or anything else by this guy then cough up some dorras and let Immigrant into your life. (I intend to end all my reviews like a bingo caller so here goes....) A bag of pork scratchings...Number 66...

Dave's review of Jao by Immigrant

Rating: 4/5

This album is 18 tracks of lovelorn, gently strummed acoustic folk from solo singer/songwriter Graeme McNab whose output over the years has been prolific. Apparently he sold all his worldly possessions and is now living in a shack in Thailand. He's penning a book about the life and times of Jon Bon Jovi, an artist that Immigrant has always found inspirational (only joshing - it's good for morale). He is penning a book though. I don't have a clue what its about, but if it's as good as this album it will be well worth checking out. It reminds me of classic singer/songwriters like Paul Simon or mebbe James Taylor. Every song could be a understated emotional classic. He's managed to wring out buckets of mood and feel with just a guitar, a smattering of overdubs and a broken heart. It sounds great this record. I totally liked listening to it. It's quite a beautiful album really. There is an element of humour and lightheartedness running through this album which is fully appreciated. A strong folk classic and one of the nicest records I have heard for ages. Sweet!!

Brett's review of Love's The Only Thing that Matters by Immigrant

Rating: 4/5

Ooh, Immigrants.. They don't half get my goat. They come over here, steal the jobs which should belong to less qualified Britonz, walk around with OUR women - one on each arm and leg - and keep us up all night playing gamelan and doing gypsy dances. I clench my fist! In other news, computer games make you stab babies and hoodies are the devil's garment. Maybe I should take a break from my liberal-reactionary-wolf-in-sheep's-clothing diatribing and take a bit of this particular immigrant's advice.. Love's the Only Thing that Matters, apparently. This is quite a gentle, charming and folky singer-songwriter effort, just one fellow and his guitar as far as I can tell. It's nice but I can't really hear anything in it that makes it stand out, although it's quite possible there are subtleties that I'm not hearing. If this is more your sort of thing than it is mine it may well be worth dipping your soldier in his folk. On Chaffinch.
