NEW RELEASES
Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings by
Counting Crows
With this album, the Counting Crows remind us of just how special the band is at their best. Recording their first new material since 2002's Hard Candy with its hit single "American Girls," it seemed that maybe the band had said everything they needed to. Not so. Their roots are stuck deep in rock's past, where songwriting craft, excellent musicianship, focused production, and wide-ranging aesthetic ambition result in carefully constructed and poetic albums. Here, the music digs deep into themes of obliteration, wasted desire, and isolation in the midst of a world that seems to be enjoying itself.
