BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt)
It's taken three years, but finally we have the protest CD filled with the scorn, outrage and cry for justice that we have been waiting for: Neil Young's "Living with War."

Perhaps only someone with Neil Young's legendary musical pedigree has the artistic clout to get an album like this distributed. Whatever the reason, it's a CD that smashes through the lying and fantasy of the D.C. press corps and Karl Rove creation known as Bushworld.

If you think you have been watching a parallel universe of treason and incompetence unfold for six years, "Living with War" is the album for you, because -- well -- you have been living with war and a failed, mendacious government.

Description | back to top

The Canadian music hall of famer and former member of Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young is responsible for hits like Southern Man, Heart of Gold and Harvest Moon. But on his newest record, to be titled Living with the War, Young is taking a page from Bob Dylan and putting together an album of protest songs against the actions of American President George W. Bush. One of the tracks on the upcoming release, which as of yet has no release date, is said to feature the single LetŐs Impeach the President whose subject is fairly obvious. Not a stranger to protest music the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young tune Ohio was written in reaction to a protest against the Vietnam War.

"During the nine new songs he sympathizes with soldiers and war victims, insists 'Don't need no more lies,' longs for a leader to reunite America and prays for peace. In a song whose title alone has already brought him the fury of right-wing blogs, he urges, 'Let's Impeach the President.'"
-- The New York Times

"'Living with War' a Howl of Dissent. Young calls for the impeachment of the president, and describes a world where TV commercials push pain relief while soldiers come home in boxes. The music is equally blunt: a guitar-bass-drums trio augmented by trumpet and a choir, but powered by feedback and rampaging drums."
-- Chicago Tribune

"As Young sees it, Bush is a lying, hypocritical windbag whose war strategy has led to thousands of deaths, and whose domestic policies have been 'dividing our country into colors, and still leaving black people neglected.'"
-- Boston Globe

"It is the very rare artist who is able to channel indignation and moral disgust in such a coherent and forceful way--without sacrificing any of the vivid imagery, passion, or the high level of musicality that we have come to expect from him over the past four decades."
-- Jaan Uhelszki, Amazon.com
