Description

Infamous for having the greatest number of expletives in a number one single, Eamon's debut album I Don't Want You Back doesn't hold any surprises and a glance through the song titles will confirm this. The music is fairly solid throughout; a soulful snare and kick with organ, guitar and bass providing an even backbeat with the exception of the percussion led "Get off My D**k" and resurrected G-funk of "I'd Rather F**k With You". However, Eamon's vocals are undoubtedly centre-stage, either by having a nasal voice that cuts through or for singing about little else than sex. The quality of the songsmore… is consistent and while "F**k It" is a standout, it would be unfair to say any of it is filler as is often the case when one single does so phenomenally well. The brooding "Lo Rida" featuring N.O.R.E. and upbeat "Finally" are just two of the many highlights and as with the rest of the album are fairly tongue-in-cheek (one hopes). The biggest drawback to I Don't Want You Back is where one could easily forgive the bitter laments of "F**k It", the endless references to "training" his girlfriends, or that women are just "bitches" and "whores" gets extremely tiring. However, among the bitterness, misogyny and nasal singing, we can see what South Park's Eric Cartman might be like if he ever grew up. --David Trueman
