Key item features

Tigerlily, Natalie Merchant's first solo record, does sound different than 10,000 Maniacs. Instead of relying strictly on jangly folk-rock, Merchant continues opening her music up as she did on Our Time in Eden, her last album with the Maniacs. From the understated groove of "Carnival" to the rolling "San Andreas Fault," the added emphasis on rhythmic texture works, creating an intimate but not exclusive atmosphere that holds throughout the record, even when her occasionally sophomoric, sentimental poetry threatens to sink the album in the weight of its own preciousness (as in "River," her tribute to the late actor River Phoenix). ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

very relevant music

Natalie Merchant's "TigerLily" is her best compilation to date. Whether she's singing about the long-married love of a known Hollywood couple or the tragedy of losing River Phoenix, the listener feels the anguish and poignancy of these topics, yet she is never maudlin. The compilation includes love songs among gentle political statements. Eminently easy to listen to and ponder, this CD will remain in my car for my long commutes.
