"On their fifth album, Drunk With Passion,
the Golden Palominos are still not really a band, and it still doesn't
matter. The concept remains simple: Invite an array of hipster musicians
into the studio, anchored by the thundering rhythm section of drummer
Anton Fier and bassist Bill Laswell, and see what sparks fly. The
group's new album, Drunk With Passion, opens with ''Alive and
Living Now,'' matching R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe with guitarist Richard
Thompson and jazz keyboardist Carla Bley. The song, Stipe's ode to that
special someone who re-energizes you after all seems lost, virtually
explodes with a kicky blast of newfound love, and it's a thrill to hear
Stipe, who enunciates every confessional word, go out on such an
emotional limb. (By comparison, most of R.E.M.'s tame Out of Time sounds like a John Denver tribute album.)" ... ew.com ...
