Reviews"With His Latest, Byrne Does What So Few of His Peers Will: He Takes Some Actual Risks.", "It’s a David Byrne album: cerebral, but with an irresistible beat; and exuberant, but in a way that is self-contained. And if America right now is something less than a utopia, Byrne is a force for positivity, exhorting us all to do better.", “'this Is That' Is a Yearning Tribute to the Power of Music, Sung over Synthetic Chinese Zither...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The album boasts some of the most exciting music Byrne has made in years....The balance of light and dark is especially compelling on 'Bullet'...", "A whimsical, weird and totally wonderful set of songs....An inquisitive and hopeful ray of sunshine filled with foot tapping beats and memorable wordplay.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "In its own abstract way, it confronts the big questions....It's melodic, goofy and very quirky.", "AMERICAN UTOPIA is filled with short and simply written songs, their pensive verses bursting into jubilant choruses on a fairly reliable schedule."
Additional InformationAt once playful and ominous, this witty and sonically inventive album spins ten tales from an imagined other America.

  • Not my cup of tea

    Going to see him in concert and wanted to hear latest CD, love Talking Heads but this is way too different.
