Album Review: Ian Anderson - Homo Erraticus

Sometimes this is a good thing, sometimes it just gets a little cheesy; perhaps the Burger King, Apple and Facebook references in Enter The Uninvited just don’t translate well for this reviewer.



A record that was never exactly going to be 'easy listening' in any way, Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson's latest effort certainly lives up to its title. Erratic is the ideal word for it; drawing influences from all walks of the musical spectrum (all still very indicative of Jethro Tull), Anderson has taken his own interpretation of 'sophistication' to a completely new place. Sometimes this is a good thing, sometimes it just gets a little cheesy; perhaps the Burger King, Apple and Facebook references in Enter The Uninvited just don't translate well for this reviewer.
