Album Review

Jack Johnson – Sleep Through The Static

• 13th Aug 2008

Even though Jack Johnson has a new single out you would never have guessed it as, unusually; it sounds the same as everything he’s ever released. It’s more low-key than normal and is from his new album of the same title.

It’s actually an effort to get through because being a painfully slow number, you feel like you’re aging with every slow second you have to endure this song. The radio edit is a minute shorter than the second version on the single, and you can see why they had to shave a minute off, as nothing would ever get done if you had to listen to the full 3 mins 44 seconds of it. Just be thankful for small victories.
