.AndyShauf Tells A Fascinating Story on 'Norm' | album review by Rosa Sofia Kaminski
Andy Shauf’s albums sort of feel like watching a murder mystery—at the same time as you’re appreciating the gentle Canadian singer/songwriter’s craft, you’re also trying to work out just where he’s coming from, and what emotional circumstances you’re in. He famously has a knack for concept LPs, the most well-known being.
Shauf’s lyrics are deceptively simple—take “Halloween Store,” for instance, in which he tells a chain of events, repeating the words “house” and “lock” about a million times in the first half, keeping the atmosphere laid back and casual. Most of these songs set up moments—with the exception of a few, they don’t do much to reflect on what has happened. That is left up to the listener.
But what meditation that is! The haunting story could live in your mind for days, with little details rising to the surface every now and then as you wonder at their meaning. Love is treated by the narrator as something concrete, that can be handled and solved like a math equation.
