Additional information
Audio Mixer: Jacquire King . Recording information: House Of David, Nashville, TN (2008-2009); Sunset Sound Recorders, CA (2008-2009); The Coop, NY (2008-2009); The Magic Shop, NY (2008-2009). Photographer: Autumn de Wilde. With The Fall, Norah Jones completes the transition away from her smooth cabaret beginnings and toward a mellowly arty, modern singer/songwriter. Jones began this shift on 2007's Not Too Late, an album that gently rejected her tendencies for lulling, tasteful crooning, but The Fall is a stronger, more cohesive work, maintaining an elegantly dreamy state that's faithful to the crooner of Come Away with Me while feeling decidedly less classicist. Some of this could be attributed to Jones' choice of producer, Jacquire King, best-known for his work with Modest Mouse and Kings of Leon, but King hardly pushes Norah in a rock direction; The Fall does bear some mild echoes of Fiona Apple or Aimee Mann in ballad mode, but its arrangements never call attention to themselves, the way that some Jon Brion productions do. Instead, the focus is always on Jones' voice and songs, which are once again all originals, sometimes composed in conjunction with collaborators including her longtime colleagues Jesse Harris, Ryan Adams, and Will Sheff of Okkervil River. In addition to King's pedigree, the latter two co-writers suggest a slight indie bent to Jones' direction, which isn't an inaccurate impression -- there's certainly a late-night N.Y.C. vibe to these songs -- but it's easy to overstate the artiness of The Fall, especially when compared to Not Too Late, which wore its ragged ambitions proudly. Here, Jones ties up loose ends, unafraid to sound smooth or sultry, letting in just enough dissonance and discord to give this dimension, creating a subtle but rather extraordinary low-key record that functions as a piece of mood music but lingers longer, thanks to its finely crafted songs. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.116) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The result is avant-roots music that rocks, albeit gently." Spin (p.76) - "[A] hot-blooded soul album from the queen of the even keel." Entertainment Weekly (p.95) - "The rainy-day requiem 'Light as a Feather' and bluesy swooner 'I Wouldn't Need You' exude an elegant sort of speakeasy allure..." Uncut - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The emotional imprint of THE FALL moves beyond the pining, wistful tones that are her trademark....'December' is the simplest yet most touching song here..." Q (Magazine) (p.114) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The last vestiges of smoky blues have been blown away....THE FALL contains more than a few copper-bottomed classics..." Paste (magazine) - "Album centerpiece 'It's Gonna Be' serves as the perfect highlight, with Jones' unmistakable voice draped in slapback echo and underscored by a tom-tom heavy beat..." Record Collector (magazine) (p.83) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "At times, Jones inhabits the same atmospheric hinterland as 'Mazzy Star' or the gothic fatalism of 'Neko Case'. In other words, she's rarely sounded so interesting."
