Some literally to be taken anecdotes, a collection of women's names and a repertoire of rather mundane background noise conjure an album together, the intoxicated - and reveals much. " There is a lot in these songs that is recorded and then mixed just below the level of being audible. I hoped it would have some unconscious effect, but it probably is just inaudible. "

first Natalie from genres I do not think very much. For this reason, I would like to dub the album with a genre label that stands out from normal, and that I found on a blog called slowcoustic.com: Bedroom folk . For folk is not the same bedroom folk, and there is no question that Mike Talon small, together shredded album about (ex-) girlfriends no better term might be just, it's also mostly written in a bedroom and recorded was . Actually, you can fit in. "Songs for Babes" anywhere else.
second Maddy
finds on this record is a whole new definition of music: Was this term so far have understood the interplay between different instruments and vocals, Mike Talon tailors with friends music from an entire library of sounds. as in Maddy - - Here music with striking police sirens is the noise racing by trains, rain pattering, seagulls crying, the ocean and all sorts of other noises made which are not always landed on purpose where you can hear in the end.
third Erin
one hears very hidden, very far away, sing in Erin someone else a different song - his friend Keith took a stick under it is also a Lied to, betrayed like Mike Talon in a small opinion. Even I know that is the song Erin a woman of the same name, whom he met at a concert and was fascinated by the dedicated, but for various reasons he could not follow her home. " Oh Erin, I wish I would have followed you home " - and a mysterious reference to the eleventh of September.
4th Angela
Obviously Talon is a man of his music can not leave without comment. So there is to read a document written in to every single one of his previously released song is a statement. I know that the stories behind the Songs on "Songs for Babes" are all true - not even Mike Talon used metaphors.
5th Rachel
should slowly be clear that "Songs for Babes" review, Mike Talon is a portrait. That artists have a direct connection to their work, are not to be said here, but rarely happens that in such a way as deliberate and konfrontale on this album.
6th I will not
Mike Talon that anyone listening to this album without thinking only of him - because he wants to sing about truth, he says, " then, was the lightest and heaviest road at the same time to write about myself ". Accordingly, Talon a lone wolf and his album is a walking self-portrait. Yet behind this album even more heads than just this one.
7th Juice
The song Juice shows this very clearly. Not only this song is dedicated to a young woman who " Creative Community," in the Talon moves in Akron, Ohio, strongly influenced, and was written originally else for a band, Black Clover, in which he is determined from time to time, but never moved. On this song is also, as in many other of the album also involved his friends. Keith friend (yes, he really means!) has joined with this piano and guitar.
8th Sam
The mandatory comparison with better-known artists should not disappear, but are kept short: "Songs for Babes" in the style reminiscent of Neil Young and Will Oldham.
9th Taz
is published Songs for Babes on the second September in Own Records. Within the U.S., it is the label "Bark And Hiss" already appeared, which brought even some other boards such as the debut album 'If' Chagrin "from 2005 to the man. Mike Talon recommends the website of Bark and Hiss to present the "Rustic Bullshit" to first - a reason he does not call, but it could be assumed that this is simply something that the best album. According to my observation, it is the most diverse and most diverse album, which has included Mike Talon. Various demos for they are at, as the album, available for free download.
10th (Ni) 'cole
Anyway, Mr. Talon seems to be sad that he is the release of "Songs for Babes" withheld from the Internet by Own Records still - he is instead similar versions of the songs online. Anyone who invests a little time, can clearly detect a trend here. Mike Talon has become safer in style, his music has consistency - if this concept in music can apply - and won.
11th Lula
particular, the concept album of "Songs for Babes" is emphasized here again, it is the first album of Talons, which so obviously is a whole that does not work when a track is missing. For this reason, see this review and the song titles and their order. The song Lula acts here especially, because it contains all styles and melodies that make up the other songs. Talons it describes as a kind of collage of the album, which should have actually been on the circuit.
12th summer
But it was different, because the only young Lady, who still is at hand, Mike Talon, Summer Miller - obviously, this development came as a surprise to Mike. She is an artist and is responsible for the great artwork of the album. However, it certainly was not thrilled when she found out that Mike is still in thought in so many different women. With which it must now share a plate.
