Review

Though he was born well after the pure beginnings of rock & roll had become boardroom contrivances and generic pastiches, Nic Armstrong has tapped into the real deal and made it his own. This young Brit fell under the spell of the Americans who inspired the first wave of English rockers, as well as those lauded countrymen (Beatles, Kinks, Stones, etc.). A sharp sense of melody informs both the uptempo numbers and the ballads. "Too Long For Her" sounds like a long lost sixties nugget without being cloying or nostalgic. The arrangement and production sensibilities throughout are perfectly in sync with the songs and singing (the bass tone on "She Changes Like the Weather" is a joy in and of itself). A terrific take on Chuck Berry's "I Want To Be Your Driver" chauffeurs this brilliant and perfectly rendered rock debut on home. --David GreenbergerSubstance, simplicity, soul and a bit of love in the context of rock n' roll are not as common as, perhaps, they once were. Enter Nic Armstrong. A 24 year-old boy blessed with an uncommonly powerful voice. Nic has fashioned a remarkably confident and exciting album, The Greatest White Liar - a work that mixes rockers with ballads and melody with blues-ey riffing. There's no posturing, little fuss, just good old tunes - something often forgotten about in the rush for the right haircut.
