Consolers Of The Lonely was an album designed to be played live and I love it. For the most part the album contains great bridges and great instrumental pieces. The dynamics within the individual tracks are great.
The Raconteurs have a great chemistry going on and you can hear it all over the place. The title track, "Salute Your Solution", "Hold Up" and "Five on the Five" are all good examples how the band seamlessly change from one groove to another on the dime at times.
The live feel of the album ensures that the dynamics of the album are accentuated. Songs such as "You Don't Understand Me", "Attention" and "Carolina Drama" are all good examples of the band's ability to change the mood of the song. I can almost see a nice light show in the background to help the visual aspect of playing on stage.
The last song on the album "Carolina Drama" is another great story from Jack White. Jack has a great gift for storytelling and this song plays the same role as "Blue Veins" did on the last album. Just a little something to seal the deal. I know that I'm sold.
