About Chocolate & Ice
Amazon.com Chocolate and Ice is the fourth EP from this Louisville, Kentucky, band who exhibit a curious fondness for beards, bluegrass, and Neil Young. The music, as expected, is an intriguing mix of Americana and psychedelia, pairing jangly guitars and molasses-thick rhythms with frontman Jim James's serviceable falsetto. Songs like "Such Protection from My Bed" and "Sweetheart" evoke Palace, Low, and occasionally, early R.E.M., without quite committing to any particular influence. Though doggedly left field, it is actually enjoyable stuff. --Aidin Vaziri Product Description My Morning Jacket, the Louisville, KY outfit that continue to defy categorization, return with a new E.P. entitled 'Chocolate and Ice.' Equal parts Southern Blues, Americana and dreamy psychaedelica, My Morning Jacket's appeal stems from, among other things, the hauntingly raw vocals of lead singer and guitarist, Jim James. While seeming to simultaneously channel the spirits of both Neil Young and Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne, Jim James leads his musical cohorts along a journey of reverb-drenched melodies, velvet melancholy lyrics, and instrumentation that combines old country swagger with classic pop sentimentality. Live, My Morning Jacket turn the proverbial amp up to 11 and rock so hard that 'shards of glass from broken beer bottles thrown against the chickenwire amidst a bar-room brawl only add to the rhythmic mayhem (from a fan website).' Clocking in at over 40 minutes, the new E.P. is still longer than the green Weezer album. B+ - Entertainment Weekly.
