Album Description
Available in:
"50 Song Memoir" is the eleventh studio album by American indie pop band The Magnetic Fields, released on March 03, 2017 o the Nonesuch label. 50 Song Memoir is an autobiographical concept album that chronicles the first 50 years of songwriter Stephin Merritt's life, with one song for each year that he has lived.
Stephin Merritt began recording on his 50th birthday on February 9, 2015. The album was produced by Merritt with additional production by Thomas Bartlett and Charles Newman. Merritt sings on all fifty tracks and plays more than one hundred instruments throughout.
User Album Review
Merritt could have taken the strongest 20 songs from this album and put out a wonderfully taut double album, but that would have removed the joy of getting to know his idiosyncrasies and personality on a level as never before. The kind of fan excited for a 50-song album by The Magnetic Fields knows what they’re getting into, and that inherent messiness is what makes the album work. 50 Song Memoir may not have the highs of “The Book of Love” or “Papa Was a Rodeo”, but it’s a more consistent listen all the way through and a more-than-worthy sequel to its predecessor. It’s a memoir only Merritt could write, and the only one we’d want him to. --- consequenceofsound.net
