    The Avett Brothers' Most Consistent Album to Date
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2013*

The Avett Brothers have become one of my favorite Indie bands of the last decade.  Their hybrid musical venues are varied, but you get quite an injection of styles and influences.  From their banjo strumming bluegrass to their upbeat alternative gems, they are a continually rising and prospering band to be reckoned with.One of their achille's heels has been their penchant for pensive, melodic songs, which often sound like dirges of pop music.  While entirely sincere there renditions of music reminding as from the pen of Roudin's sculpture with his chin in his hand and the heavy sighing of a man who's had too many beers to drown out his sorrows.On their truly excellent album 'Emotionalism' (my personal favorite), they have wonderfully upbeat, quirky songs such as "Die, Die, Die," their classic "Paranoia in B Major," and a great rousing trio of romantic songs, "Will You Return," "Pretty Girl from San Diego," and "Pretty Girl from Chile".  Now those of you who know 'The Gleam' e.p.'s and the slow songs from 'Emotionalism' may agree with me that when they're pensive, they certainly round out the mood and consistently channel their emotions, but they don't give us their best songs.  Only "Shame" articulately digs for treasure in the sad song repertoire of the Avett Brothers.'The Carpenter' changes all of that.  Not only are the fast songs invigorating, but the slower songs are melodic and exquisitely phrased.  There isn't a bad track here.  Particularly, the Beatlesque "Live and Die," "A Father's First Spring," and the masterpiece "Winter in My Heart" demonstrate a slow-tempo strain of songs that, if any thing, is better than the progressive numbers.But don't be fooled by AM readiness of this collection. Just when songs like the appealing "Live and Die" come to the forefront, then they counter this approach with the idiosyncratic (and worthwhile) "Paul Newman Vs. The Demons".The variety of 'The Carpenter' and the breadth of tempos and musicianship are expert like no time before or since. While 'You and I and Love' state a good case to bring The Avetts into the top of the charts, 'The Carpenter' has the musical and lyrical finesse to scotch all other achievements for a band that seems to have just gotten started.

    No Sophomore Slump for The Avett Brothers
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2012*

The eclectic mix of genres, instruments, and styles displayed by The Avett Brothers in their first album, "I and Love and You", is again prominent in "The Carpenter", their second release.  Unlike some other's offerings of different perspectives in a field that has come to be called "Americana", The Avett Brothers' blend of folk, country, bluegrass, rock, pop, the kitchen sink, you-name-it, continues to remain fresh and uniquely their own.  Attempts by others to develop their own signature sound beyond a single album have often become repetitive remakes of their initial issue (Mumford & Sons?) and consequently lose much of their popular appeal.Without engaging in a wordy dissection of each track from "The Carpenter", I'll close by saying that if you enjoyed their first album, it's very likely you'll take pleasure in #2.  If you're unfamiliar with The Avett Brothers, you won't suffer by acquiring one of their releases instead of the other.  The quality remains high throughout.

    Truly a Gem!
  

*by D***6 on Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2013*

I love it, play it often, tell people about it and it's just been a breath of fresh air for new music.  I first learned about the Avett Brothers by watching Paladia on high definition TV.  The video I'd seen was just great (Live and Die), what a turn on!  My first Avett Brothers purchase was "The Carpenter" and also bought "I and Love and You" and Live Vol 3.  These guys are great and I surely hope to see them touring up into New England someday!  Recent video on paladia was Crossroads with Randy Travis (yeah he's recovered) and the show was great, so much musical talent!  Anyways, looking forward to getting caught up on some of the other previously released CD's.  Definitely satisfied with my purchase at Amazon, the product price, the auto-rip to the cloud and the responsive shipping process!
