 Love A Howling Bruce!!
Submitted on: 2009-07-08 |

| I bought this album when it first came out. Didn't like it. Put it on the shelf for about 4 months and then took it down and started listening to it. The more I listened, the more I loved it. This is Bruce and the E Street Band at its best. What I love about Bruce is his Vocals, his howling and his songwriting. Bruce howls on this record. The writing is beautiful and makes me remember why I loved Springsteen in the first place. I have been playing this CD all summer and it is so America - the America I am proud to know and the America that is disappearing...In my opinion, Bruce's best album. Racing in the Streets my favorite, but Badlands, Promised Land, Prove It All Night, a howling Bruce on Something In The Night, Streets of Fire and the title track Darkness on the Edge of Town reign as some of his best...get it!! |

Springsteen's best

The cover photos for this album symbolize what it's all about. On the front, Springsteen wears that emblematic "Born to Run" black leather jacket, as seen on the cover of the previous record that made him an overnight superstar. On the back, the famous stud-leather is gone; the Boss is stripped down to a plain white T.
For all its success, to my ears "Born to Run"'s songs are often sentimental and even phony: the record pumps up banal, everyday stories into unconvincing epics with comic book melodrama and unlistenably hyper-inflated wall-of-sound bombast. It doesn't stand the test of years well, IMO.
But "Darkness" is its shadowy obverse. More banal, everyday life-stories, yet made powerfully compelling by simple, honest, confessional story-telling and gritty, stripped-down musical arrangements that keep you close to the bones of some of Springsteen's sharpest, loveliest songwriting.
"BTR" is unconvincingly overpowering; "Darkness" is shattering, unforgettable. Not to be missed! |
