─ Release notes ─────────────────────────────────────── ─── ─ ─
Tragedy has a way of putting everything into
perspective, a truism that's brought into sharp relief
by the Dave Matthews Band. LeRoi Moore, the group's
saxophonist, died in an ATV accident in 2008, something
that shook the DMB to their core and they've responded
as any working band does: by carrying on, playing gigs
-- including one on the day of his passing -- and
finishing the album they were recording at the time of
his death, turning Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux King into
a tribute to their fallen comrade. By saluting his
spirit, DMB wind up returning to their roots,
jettisoning any of the well-manicured crossover pop of
Stand Up and reviving the loose-limbed jams that were
their '90s specialty, a sound they've largely abandoned
-- at least on record -- since 1998's Before These
Crowded Streets. During that long, long decade between
Before and Big Whiskey, DMB remained one of America's
biggest bands even though much of those ten years found
Matthews working through various existential crises --
things got too big so he pulled away from the band,
turned out a dark solo record, then came back -- and
his namesake band drifted along with him. Here,
everything snaps back into focus: what was glossy is
now clean and unvarnished; there is no avoidance of
their rangy, loping rhythms or predilection for elastic
solos; and these signatures -- shunned on record, not
on-stage -- are embraced warmly, given muscle, and
married to the dark undercurrents that have flowed
throughout Matthews' new-millennium writing. Surely,
Moore's early death weighs heavily here -- he is the
GrooGrux King of the album's title and there are many
allusions to him in lyrics -- but Matthews also ties in
references to Hurricane Katrina and war, all as part of
his wide-open meditations on mortality and morality.
Not all of Big Whiskey is about death: there is an
equal amount of love tunes, plus one of Matthews'
casually vulgar sex songs, all celebrating enduring
relationships, providing a counterpoint to the waves of
melancholy. But what makes Big Whiskey & the GrooGrux
King the Dave Matthews Band's richest, and quite
possibly best, album is the implicit message that all
the love and loss can be felt and shared through the
music, that the creation of the music itself is the
reason why they're here -- and that's not just a moving
tribute to LeRoi Moore, it's a reason for the band to
keep moving on.
