Monday Magazine October 16- 22, 2008 Review

Trading his country twang for a healthy dose of mature songwriting, Rae Spoon’s latest showcases a much different sound than his three previous albums.  While there for definatly country elements on Superioryouareinferior  they aren’t the driving voice here – Spoon’s haunting voice and touching cross country lyrics are.  From the Opener “Great Lakes” to the quiet and simple “Strength From Within”, this is Spoon’s most solid and polished album yet.  The sound of one of Canada’s hardest working musicians coming into his own is sweet indeed.
