Today’s Random Album of the Day is Give Up the Ghost from Brandi Carlile. I originally rolled another “album” but it wasn’t clear if it was an album or just a bunch of singles I had for that artist. So I’m going to research that and bump it to another day. I just need time to clarify information on it.

Brandi Carlile is pop folk. A bit on the poppy end to be something I get too into maybe. But I do like her music. Like I thought “Looking Out” was a solid folk rock song but “Dying Day” felt bland to me. I should love it as it’s a sappy love song and I’m a total sap. Same with “Oh dear”.

So overall I have mixed feelings on the album. Some songs I like and some I don’t love. Nothing I absolutely hate though so a good album overall.

Rating: 8.0

Favorite Track(s): “Looking Out” is a solid folk rock song. “Dreams” is nice and anthemic. I Like “Caroline” quite a bit actually. “Touching the Ground” is the reason I have this album. I love it.

Keep or Trash: Keep.
