Blink: Plumbs back
Posted October 03, 2007
By Nathan,
Blink by Plumb is a collection of songs that Tiffany Arbuckle wrote while was a new mother, leaving a different type of music from Plumb that we may not have been expecting.
The first fact about this album is it is not rock, unlike other plumb releases. The only song with an a decent beat is "sleep" and that's not rock at all. However it does let's Plumb emphasize her powerful and great vocals more. The music is mostly light, like the first track "my sweet my lovely", but still sounds good.
Her first single off of this album was a hit "in my arms", but she may struggle to put any other hits on the radio because of the similarity of style of music and the almost unchanging themes of her songs. "God will take care of you" sounds almost like a hymn, and "always" sounds like plumb we have heard before but on a more regular basis. The title track "blink" is one of the best songs on the album; the rest is pretty runs the same style of music.
The lyrics are all about a mother with her children, which is very touching at times, but it does get a little repetitive. "Always" is a good song reflecting motherhood and "me" talks about being blessed with children; a song which is pretty meaningful in this time. Everything except for, and even somewhat, "God will take care of you" is about motherhood in someway.
A different album by Plumb than we are used to seeing, as she takes us down a different path of music and lyrics to where Plumb is very passionate. This album will likely attract new fans but might turn older ones way.
