Wreckless Eric is the sort of artist who is commonly describedas quintessentially British, even though he's been bouncing aboutEurope and the United States for a few decades; both his voice andhis lyrical outlook are echoes of pubs and bedsits, even after hesettled down in France. After relocating to Hudson, New York, Ericdecided to make a concept album about the United States as seenthrough his eyes, and it's fitting that 2015's America (or, as it'sspelled on the cover, amERICa) sounds like nothing so much as aWreckless Eric record, built from the wobbly notes of a slightlyeccentric outsider who is at once fascinated and bemused by the bigcountry in which he's landed. Eric rarely painted a rosy portraitof British life, so it's only fair he doesn't seem to feel muchdifferent about his new home in the States; he marvels at the factevery diner seems to have the same food, he bristles at gettingstuck in a small town where nothing seems to happen, he ponders thecurious notion that he's even more obscure in America than he wasin the U.K., and he can't quite suss out the rote cheeriness of thestrangers he meets. Wreckless Eric has always seems like anoutsider at heart wherever he lands, and America gives him a biggercanvas than ever in which to feel out of place, and while Eric'svague grumpiness is showing here, he also offers clues that thereare things in America he likes, at least when it comes to music andthe unfortunate career trajectories of U.S. boy bands. And whileEric has been making his records at home using rescued gear forsome time now, America shows he's getting better at it. While he'sinexplicably fond of a synthesized choral effect, for the most partthis album sounds clear but homebrewed at the same time, with charmmaking less of a sacrifice on fidelity. America is a reminder thatlife in these United States isn't going to change one of the greateccentrics of British rock, and he might even walk away a betterand more perceptive songwriter if this music is any indicator.
