SOUND OFF: BLOODY, BLOODY Brilliant
by Robert Diamond - Sep 16, 2010
Today we are listening to the Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording of The Public Theater's Broadway-bound punk rock musical BLOODY, BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON which is, without question, the very best Broadway score to blaze upon the boards in years. It's bloody, bloody brilliant. It's everything SPRING AWAKENING tried to be (and sporadically succeeded in showing, but not singing) but it effortless evokes the passion, fire, drive and earthy bite of the early eighteenth century combined with the apathetic overtures masking a cowering fear which defines the plight of the twenty-first century generation, Gen Y. A meta-musical and a concept musical but an effective and engaging one. This musical is x to the nth degree. It's everything every Broadway show should be: innovative, provocative, exciting, original and featuring a score with not one weak link! Conceive yourselves quite lucky and Say, 'Yea! Yea!'
