Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere is a somber album. The songs are stripped down rock and roll which feel like country rock. The album actually starts off upbeat, but after Cinnamon Girl it's all gloom.
I like this album a lot. I don't know if it was intentional, but each song creates a darker mood than the one before it. Neil Young is also good for cutting away nonsense and idealism (of psychedelia) and singing about real people, real feelings in the here-and-now. This is definitely an album worth listening to. It's also definitely a worthy addition to any collection.
The songs are all great. Cinnamon Girl may the most recognizable song on the album, but it's the least solemn. The stand outs are Cinnamon Girl, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, Down By the River, Running Dry (Requiem for the Rockets) and Cowgirl in the Sand.
★★★★★★★★★★
