Drunkards Prayer Review"Drunkard's Prayer," the latest release from Over the Rhine, reflects the attempt to simplify their lives and strengthen their relationship. Bergquist and Detweiler dropped everything during their "Ohio" tour to rest and "reinvent our own relationship" as Detweiler revealed in an interview. The result is this CD. "Drunkard's Prayer" strips everything down-melodies, lyrics and production.
Most noticeable are the simpler melodies. Early Over the Rhine produced some funky sounds, but Drunkard's Prayer arranges the notes in an easy fashion, making for choruses that the listener will hum with absent-mindedness. "Looking Forward" and "I Want You To Be My Love" exemplify the unadorned sound found in this project.
Simpler lyrics are also found in Drunkard's Prayer. Detweiler's writing usually contains word play and metaphors, but they are less obvious here. The word play is still there; it just relies upon more common themes. Instead of "what a beautiful piece of heartache this has all turned out to be" it is "I cry just a little bit, just a little bit, everyday." Instead of "I drink you `cause it's easy to see it's mostly myself that's killing me" we get "You're my water, You're my wine, You're my whiskey from time to time."
Production was also toned down for "Drunkard's Prayer." Instead of a studio, Detweiler and Bergquist recorded their songs for this CD in their living room. The result is a quiet evening at home, a stretching in front of the fire, a sitting on the back porch.
Is "simpler" better or worse? Probably neither; it may just be a reflection of where these two people are at in their lives right now.
