Adam Green – Minor Love Review

Review by Sheila Dichoso
It all started with Adam Green crooning, “Baby come dance with me on TV at the TV station,” (What does that even mean?) back in 2002. The bizarre lyric is from his solo debut, Garfield, and it’s perfectly sums up the erstwhile Moldy Peaches co-founder’s idiosyncrasy: tongue-in-cheek, “idiot savant” songwriting—exhibited in songs both with Kimya Dawson and his solo work—that are altogether genius, funny, and possibly headache-inducing if one tries to figure out what it all means. For his sixth solo album Minor Love, there’s more of the same lyrical flair now transformed into fine-tuned poetry (“Castles and tassels and flatulent assholes, I love you, always,” he sings) and it’s evident that he’s listened to more Dylan.

DOWNLOAD MP3: Adam Green – “Castles And Tassels”
Former Moldy Peaches frontman Adam Green has a new album titled: Minor Love due out on February 16 via Fat Possum. The first track to be released off the album is “Castles” and Tassels,” an acoustic, consciously quirky song, that finds Green declaring: “Castles and tassels and flatulent assholes, I love you” in a very Stephin Merritt-y kinda way. Yeah, it doesn’t get much better than that.
Green has a mondo European tour plan through March that can be seen here on his Myspace, but no word yet on any U.S. Dates.
