A Few Words on... Owl John - Owl John
As I sit here, in the office, dosed up to the eyes on painkillers and caffeine and hearing the british summer come to it's inevitable end in August through blinds, I'm faced with yet another debut solo album from another well established rock frontman. More stripped back songs to match the lack of other band members, more confusion as to why I can love the group's output but find the leading man's solo debut so boring.

Songs that should have been relegated to B-Sides or, not released at all, are suddenly thrown in the spotlight and the record suffers for it.
