Five years after his debut, this third disc Love At The End Of The World appears to have achieved a solid balance between radio-friendly rock and rootsy jams, and is more than capable of pleasing both palates. For the most part, ‘Born’s commentary is divided into two topics: love and politics. Lyrically, Roberts is subtle and sharp throughout; his first single “Them Kids” is done in a sing\/talk style that evokes the spirit of Dylan’s “Subterranean Homesick Blues” and reflects on music’s past and future; overtop of an up-tempo melody, Roberts’ emotes “the kids don’t know how to dance to rock and roll.” “The Pilgrim” is another standout, including a musical invocation to world leaders that asserts “I hope it’s clear as crystal\/That the man with the pistol\/Is calling all the shots these days.” There are trademark Roberts instrumental rock-outs throughout as well; noteworthy points in that regard include the folksy “Words \u0026amp; Fire” -- featuring fellow Montreal singer Angela Desveaux -- which has the languidness and warmth of a backstage-at-Woodstock jam, and disc closer “Detroit ’67,” a track that resonates with bluesy piano and old school rock ‘n roll sing-song style. --Denise Sheppard\n\nProduct Description\n\n2008 release from the Multi-Platinum Selling, Multi-Juno Award Winner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 602517629738\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0602517629738\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45937987944482,"sku":"LS-BNX4-46HT","price":15.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/41igpb2mOcL.jpg?v=1783589600","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/sam-roberts-love-at-the-end-of-the-world-cd","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
