Company: Adam Davison, David Janik, Stephanie Rabins, Christopher Teret. Personnel: Barry London (Wurlitzer organ). Audio Mixer: Barry London. With an extraordinary songwriting prowess that merits comparisons to the likes of Bob Dylan and Neil Young, a twin guitar latticework that marries Pavement's jagged jangle with the rustic psychedelica of the Grateful Dead, and a Band-like musical camaraderie that spills out of their harmonies, Company may be the most criminally underappreciated band of their time. OLD BABY--their second masterpiece in as many tries on Brah Records--argues this emphatically. The band's trio of stellar songwriters--Christopher Teret, Adam Davison, and Stephanie Rabins--each bring a slate of neo-classics to the table: Teret's "The Sad Businessman" finds the same weariness in struggles emotional and political; Davison's "Old Crow's Complaint" taps a rural rock sensibility that recalls WORKINGMAN'S DEAD; and Rabins wrings affecting poetics out of simple realities like gardening chores--"Poison Ivy"--and irritating co-workers--"Down In the Goathouse." With Dave Janik's ever-shifting drums propelling them forward and warm harmonies enveloping each chorus, every track on OLD BABY resonates long after the album's close. Essential.
