him album discography download free Volume One. She is actress Zooey Deschanel; Him is alt-singer/songwriter M. Ward. The two met on the set of a movie, found some musical common ground, and began working together. Volume One is the resulting album and it's one of the better albums made recently by a movie star, male or female. Good enough, in fact, that it even heads off the obligatory suspicions that she only got to make a record because she was a Hollywood star. After a few spins of the album, one could make a compelling case that Deschanel could quit her day job, or at least justifiably call herself an actress/musician. The common ground that the duo explores on Volume One is a sweet place where light-'60s pop meets strummy country tunes and candy-coated folk, a mythical meeting place between Sandie Shaw and Tammy Wynette with cameos by Richard & Linda Thompson. Deschanel's songs are simple and sad tales of heartbreak and missed connections, with hooky melodies and not a single artless moment to be found. For sure, there's not a single instance that sounds like she got the gig because of who she is instead of what she can do. Even if her songs were weak, her strong, assured vocals would carry the day. Sweet and rich with no annoying folky warble, she can croon ("Take It Back"), cry ("Sentimental Heart"), be playful (the bubblegum snappy "I Was Made for You"), or just sweep you off your feet with sweetness ("Sweet Darlin'," which she co-wrote with another artist who overcomes his Hollywood roots, Jason Schwartzman). As for Ward, he keeps his quirks mostly to himself, providing sympathetic backing unadorned by the kind of tricks and gimmicks that make his own albums slightly uneven. The occasional whistle here or slightly unconventional string arrangement there are the only traces of his usual artistry on Volume One. The rest of the time he and the band (which includes the ubiquitous Mike Mogis) create a soft, gentle feel equally inspired by the Brill Building and the Countrypolitan sound of Nashville in the late '50s. The only place the album falters is on the two covers the duo attempts. Deschanel doesn't add much to "You Really Got a Hold on Me," and Ward's backing vocals are just the kind of affected, arch singing she avoids elsewhere. Their take on the Beatles' "I Should Have Known Better" is better, but still awfully close to a novelty. The album would have been more successful without both tracks, but even with them, it stands as a nice coming out party for Deschanel. If you run screaming at the thought of singing actresses, give She & Him a chance and they might calm your fears. You may even forget the origins of the singer and simply be charmed by the singing, the songs, and the sounds found on Volume One. Volume Two. It’s hard to be ambivalent about Zooey Deschanel. She’s a polarizing personality, one whose deadpan movie roles and big Bambi eyes are either charming or too cute for their own good. The same can be said for She & Him, a soft rock duo that features Deschanel doing what she does best as a film star: acting utterly adorable alongside a quiet, talented male character. Her co-star in this case is M. Ward, who produces the band's second album and frames Deschanel’s voice with a Spector-sized pile of instruments. Those who already take issue with Zooey’s acting will almost surely pick this record apart -- it’s too reminiscent of her cutesy turns in movies like (500) Days of Summer to change many minds -- but for fans of retro pop (and Deschanel in general), Volume 2 is a gem. Whether they’re copping the Brill Building sound or resurrecting ‘70s beach-pop, She & Him always seem to have nostalgia on the mind. These 13 tracks hail from an imaginary, sepia-toned world in which Richard Carpenter is king and Ron Burgundy is on the tube, and even a handful of contemporary references (“Talking on the phone and watching Cribs/He doesn’t know what kind of guy he is”) does little to transport the listener back to the 21st century. Like the previous album, Volume 2 would suffer under the weight of its own pastiche if it weren’t so darn endearing, filled as it is with call-and-response vocals, studio reverb, sweeping orchestrations, and other bygone tricks of the trade. Deschanel still has some flaws as a vocalist -- her twang sometimes gets the best of her, pushing parts of the melody flat -- but she smartly plays to her strengths, with a hint of vibrato and a sly, audible smile coloring her best performances. “Love like ours is terrible news, but that won’t stop me crying over you,” she sings at the end of “Thieves,” her voice fading out into M. Ward’s sweeping Wall of Sound. This has all been done before, perhaps, but that’s the whole point, and Volume 2 ends up being a breezy tribute to the group’s influences. HIM (2) HIM (originally His Infernal Majesty (2)) was a Finnish rock band founded in 1991 by singer/frontman Ville Valo and bass player Migé Amour. Their first release was the demo EP 666 Ways To Love: Prologue , which was released in 1996 and is the only thing they released under their original name. By the time they released their debut full-length Greatest Love Songs Vol. 666 in 1997, the name had been shortened to HIM to make their name easier on the Finnish tongue as well as to tone down the more occult elements of their public image. With their second album, Razorblade Romance , HIM gained exposure all over Europe as the track "Join Me" was included in the European version of the movie The Thirteenth Floor . Their fourth album, Love Metal , expanded their popularity to the U.S., giving them the status of world-wide rock stars. The album Dark Light spawned the hit "Wings of a Butterfly", which became the band's biggest US hit and made Dark Light the first album by a Finnish act to go gold in the US. The band disbanded in 2017. Final lineup: Ville Valo - vocals (1991-2017) Migé Amour (Mikko Paananen) - bass (1991-1992, 1995-2017) Lily Lazer (Mikko Lindström) - guitar (1993-2017) Emerson Burton (Janne Puurtinen) - keyboards (2001-2017) Jukka "Kosmo" Kröger - drums (2015-2017) A Very She & Him Christmas. Drawing inspiration, both musically and artistically, from classic holiday offerings from the likes of the Carpenters, the Beach Boys, and Vince Guaraldi, M. Ward and Zooey Deschanel's third outing under the She & Him moniker finds the impossibly quirky duo tackling its first collection of Christmas music. A Very She & Him Christmas is all about the kitsch, from the retro packaging complete with a hyper-stylized photo shot by photographer Autumn De Wilde and liner notes in the form of a signed Christmas card, to the swingin’ choices, many of which are culled from the aforementioned Carpenters/Beach Boys outings. Musically, the duo keeps things simple, utilizing guitar and vocals, peppered with the occasional bit of percussion, ukulele, or organ. Deschanel handles the majority of the leads, and when she stays in a lower register (“The Christmas Song,” “Blue Christmas”) the results can be winning, especially when they’re slathered in classic, Les Paul/Mary Ford-inspired slapback delay. However, busier cuts like “Sleigh Ride,” “Little Saint Nick,” and “Christmas Day” reveal a charming yet pitchy vocalist with all of the inflections of a classic torch singer, and none of the discipline.

HONORABLE MENTION. SAY IT TWICE I see “Say It Twice” as a family-friendly track that you can play at Sunday gatherings. “Say It Twice” is powered by this gentle ass instrumental that I believe a trap angel made. Over this instrumental, Gates delivers a soft-spoken hook, vulnerable verses and heavenly background vocals. Since the song is about appreciating a women to the upmost respect, I felt his approach on it was appropriate. 5. FACTS I know Kevin Gates has turned into this wise/peaceful man these last couple of years, but on the real, I love when he’s his grungy self! On “Facts,” that’s the exact version of the Louisiana rapper that you get. Not only does he call out snakes, ops and record execs on the song, but he also makes sure to remind listeners that he’s still a drug-dealing/cold muthaf**ka, too. Personally, I love how tough the instrumental to “Facts” sounds. I also love how Gates plows his way through the said instrumental like a bull that just saw some red. (As I think about it, Gates kinda resembles a bull) The flow Kevin Gates raps with on this song is relentless and unsalable. 4. BAGS “Bags” is emotional, braggadocios, high-octane and slightly grungy. The emotional aspect of the song comes from the production, as it features the same gentle melody as XXXTENTACION’s “whoa” instrumental. The braggadocios aspect of the song comes from Gates’ occasional lyrics about his shiny diamonds, fine ass women and first class trips (This aspect of the song is key), while the high-octane aspect of the song comes from Gates’ explosive adlibs/verses. 3. ICEBOX In “Icebox,” Kevin Gates sings, but nothing like Omarion (Thank GOD). What you do get from Gates is soulful singing and gritty rapping, as he uses the song as an opportunity to let the world know why he’s cold towards women, his foes and backstabbers. I love how riveting/hard-hitting the instrumental attached to “Icebox” is. I also love how passionate Gates sings on the track, as he drops off this memorable hook that never lets up in trill energy. As for the Louisiana native’s rapping style on “Icebox,” it’s erratic, as throughout, he bounces between hurt, defensive and troubled (Does this n***a have PTSD?). 2. PUSH IT “Push It” is on some ‘hood workout’ s**t. You know what I like about “Push It?” Kevin Gates capitalizes off of ferocious energy and underdog vibes on it. From start to finish, the “2 Phones” rapper drops inspirational bars revolving around hustling, dismissing foes and indulging in women on it, never letting up in aggression each step of the way. Additionally, you can tell Gates refused to play slave to the hard-hitting instrumental he was served with on the song — an aspect I believe makes him a rebellious n***a you don’t want to f**k with. I don’t mean to sound rude, but a Kevin Gates workout video will probably stay on the shelf. 1. WALLS TALKING “Walls Talking” is powerful! On it, you get a hook that is complex/emotional, verses that are deep, and an instrumental that is passionate, yet hard-hitting (That’s a helluva combination, right?). I thought the lyrics on “Walls Talking” was very chilling. On it, Kevin talks about murking his own friend, being blackballed, running away from home at an early age, and living in numerous homes. Though I felt uncomfortable like s**t while listening to the track, I did feel like Gates got a chance to release some demons within himself by telling us his unfortunate stories from the past (I’m all about n***as releasing demons from within).
