"Young Man In America" is a masterful addition to Anais Mitchell's already impressive body of work. Her complex lyrics and unique musical phrasing make it a constant unveiling of surprises. With Father's Day approaching, this is a particularly timely purchase, either as a gift or for one's own enjoyment - whether you are a father or have ever had a father. Anais plumbs the depths of the sometimes painful, always rich and convoluted relationship between father and child in such songs as "Wilderland," "He Did," "Young Man In America," "Dyin' Day" and others. That is a predominant theme of this album - the cover photo is one of Anais' own father as a young man "in America." But the album touches on many themes: love both won and lost, avarice, womanhood, manhood, all with a very contemporary yet timeless sensibility. Anais draws on her unique upbringing in America and the Middle East to paint a culturally and lyrically rich picture of what it is to be human in this age. She makes you feel like you may be a better person for having listened. Her voice is deceptively childlike, but she demonstrates that it is absolutely under her control on such songs as "He Did" and "Tailor," conveying very thoughtful images with the voice of simplicity and innocence.I listened to this album and cycled through a range of emotions from happy highs to tragic lows, all tinged with the sort of warm, almost nostalgic melancholy that is characteristic of Anais' music. If you love to connect with the music you listen to, this album is good bet for you.
