Marc Ribot & Rootless Cosmopolitans - Requiem For Whats His Name
Review by Loan Burger
Requiem For Whats His Name, the latest album by Marc Ribot & Rootless Cosmopolitans, is a stunning collection of songs that showcases the band's unique blend of jazz, rock, and world music. The album features Ribot's signature guitar playing, which is both intricate and melodic, as well as the band's tight rhythm section and guest appearances by vocalists and instrumentalists.
The album opens with "Bells", a haunting instrumental track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band then launches into "The Kid", a driving rock tune with Ribot's guitar shredding through the mix. The album then takes a turn towards more experimental territory with "Dawn", a track that features a spoken-word poem over a pulsing beat and atmospheric guitar.
Throughout the album, Ribot and his bandmates showcase their versatility, moving seamlessly between genres and styles. "The Wizard" is a funky, upbeat track that features guest vocalist Fay Victor, while "The Empty Boat" is a beautiful, contemplative ballad with Ribot's guitar taking center stage.
