Bryan, Zach

Vinyl Records and Rare LPs:

American Heartbreak
New - LP - 093624869559
Sealed 2022 3LP Original. Mastered At Sterling Sound In Nashville, TN By Joe Nino-Hernes. Pressed In Germany At Optimal Media Gmbh. "Say This For Zach Bryan: When He Landed A Major-Label Deal, He Decided To Go Big. Very, Very Big, As It Turns Out. American Heartbreak Is A Whopping 34 Songs, Amounting To Two Hours And Two Minutes Of Music -- Longer Than Any Album This Side Of The Clash's Sandinista Or Prince's Emancipation. Like Those Two Records, American Heartbreak Winds Up Reflecting Its Era. Sandinista Sprawled With Over Three LP's, Emancipation Filled Out Three Cds, And American Heartbreak Simply Spills Out, An Endless Playlist That Sounds Nearly As Coherent On Shuffle As In Its Released Sequence. That's Not A Knock On The Album So Much As A Description: It's A Clearinghouse For Everything The Red Dirt Troubadour Has Completed, Whether It's A Rollicking Rocker Like "Whiskey Fever" Or A Lazily Soulful Rendition Of The Jimmie Davis Standard "You Are My Sunshine." Mostly, Bryan Explores An Earnest, Heartfelt Middle Ground That Feels Like He's Standing Alone With An Acoustic Guitar Even When He's Fleshed Out With Other Instruments. Often, Bryan Feels Like An Heir To Evan Felker, The Singer/Songwriter At The Core Of Turnpike Troubadours, One Of The Key Red Dirt Americana Bands Of The 2010s. He Writes Directly But Not Plainly; His Words Are Unfussy And Melodies Unadorned. On An Individual Basis, The Songs Are Striking. Collectively, American Heartbreak Can Be A Little Hard To Digest, Especially In One Sitting: It's A Little Too Much Of A Good Thing, The Sounds All Bleeding Together In An Amiable Fashion. Parse The Songs Out Into User-constructed Playlists, Though -- Or Take It As A Series Of 20-minute Eps -- And It's Hard Not To Be Impressed With The Sturdiness Of Bryan's Music, How He Keeps The Dusty Literary Traditions Of Red Dirt Troubadours Alive Without Affectation."

Zach Bryan
New - LP - 093624849773
Sealed 2023 original. Parental advisory sticker on shrink. "Zach Bryan begins his eponymous album -- the one he delivered a little over a year after American Heartbreak, his sprawling major-label debut -- by reciting a poem, a move that suggests that despite his elevation to the upper ranks of country stars, he's still the same old Zach Bryan: a singer/songwriter who prizes the cadence of the words more than the sway of melody. Filled with hushed, weary meditations about the ways of this world, Zach Bryan generally proves this assertion true. Bryan does demand that his audience lean into the songs to discern their meaning; he gives a hint of a hook, enough to coax a second listen to unpack all the sorrows racing around in his head. Over the course of a triple album, this approach gets monochromatic, but Zach Bryan is tighter than American Heartbreak not only holistically but in its individual parts. The midnight ramblings are sharpened lyrically and melodically to the point that each guest -- the War and Treaty, Sierra Ferrell, and Kacey Musgraves, who helped "I Remember Everything" race to number one -- feels welcome. Bryan is indeed getting outside of his head here. That said, Zach Bryan retains a certain sameness: he's working variations of a grey scale, not painting with a full palette, and the variations on a theme can get a little dull by the end of the proceedings."
