Neil Young-Living With War (2006)

With his twenty-ninth album, Canadian Neil Young continued his politically charged themes, this time focusing, as the title suggests, on the wars waged by the American administration. This time, his target was the foreign policies of George W. Bush and his crusade in the Iraq War. Lyrically, it's very close to the protest folk that reigned during the 1960s, while musically it showcases Young's most furious and raw side. Distorted guitars, powerful rhythms, plenty of spontaneity, and a stark, honest rock sound are what we find here. Great vocal melodies, rhythmic grooves, poignant lyrics, and intense, gritty guitar riffs are present in tracks like "After The Garden", "Living With War", "Shock And Awe", "Families", "Lookin' For A Leader", and "Let's Impeach the President". Without a doubt, this is one of the most narrative and timeless albums from the brilliant Canadian musician.
