User Album Review
DeMarco’s stylistic versatility and vocal prowess are undeniably impressive feats he holsters in his tool belt, and at times, he puts them to great use on Cowboy. His use of vibrato in his higher vocal register on cuts such as “Finally Alone” serves as a highlight, as do the warm, twangy synth arpeggios of “On the Square”. “Choo Choo” takes on this George Clinton-esque funk riff, with a sampled train whistle chiming in as he sings the refrain.
The closing track, “Baby Bye Bye”, kicks off with these soul-influenced falsetto vocals and ends with a hidden track titled “The Cattleman’s Prayer”, which serves as perhaps DeMarco’s most bold reimagining of funk music yet. In a complete departure from character, he screams in a manner similar to James Brown. While by no means possessing the same vocal bite as the Godfather of Soul, his willingness to take left turns is nothing short of refreshing.
DeMarco’s curious and convention-defying blend of influences is a proven formula that has been pushing rock and pop music into a new frontier, and as such, it would be unreasonable to expect a sudden departure from it. And this album possesses a handful of creative risks that prove satisfying. DeMarco truly shines whenever a wider array of instruments and styles are at his disposal. When all of that is out of the picture, however, it dampens Here Comes the Cowboy’s full potential.
