Over The James
''Over the James'' is the fourth studio album by punk rock band Avail. It was released in 1998 on Lookout! Records. The album was re-released in 2006 by Jade Tree Records. The re-release contains the songs from Avail's split record with the (Young) Pioneers, as well as two tracks recorded for compilations. Reception and legacy Brian Raftery of AllMusic gave ''Over the James'' a three star review praising cuts like "Sanctuary 13" and "August" but noting the band's stagnation. Zach Baron of Pitchfork gave the album 7.7 out of 10 praising the album's production, stating: "slicker, slower, longer-- epic, sorta pretentious-- but also the apotheosis of their sound, more or less: All chorus, all the time". In May 2019, Decibel inducted ''Over the James'' into their Hall of Fame, calling it a melodic hardcore classic that was popular among emo and metal fans alike.

August (song)
"August" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her eighth studio album, ''Folklore'' (2020). Swift and Jack Antonoff wrote the song, and the two produced it with Joe Alwyn. "August" is a ballad that combines dream pop, guitar pop, and soft rock. It features a dense reverb and an orchestration of strings and keyboards. The lyrics are told from the perspective of an unnamed female character, who yearns for the 17-year-old boy James; he abandons her after a brief summer romance and reconciles with his former lover Betty. The narrative of "August" forms a love triangle depicted in three ''Folklore'' tracks, the other two being " Cardigan" (from Betty's perspective) and " Betty" (from James's perspective). Music critics lauded the cinematic production and storytelling of "August", with some deeming it a highlight of ''Folklore'' and Swift's discography. A seasonal success that resurges in popularity around August each year, the track peaked at number 46 on ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
