ADI MOSKOVITCH – FREE SPIRIT: LETTING IT ALL GO NO GRAVITY TO HOLD
PARTRIDGE PUBLISHING
BOOK REVIEW BY AARON BADGLEY
Adi Mosko, otherwise known as Adi Moskovitch, fronts a band from Tel Aviv known as The Corridors, who have been releasing excellent rock albums since 2009. Their most recent studio album, Humanized, was released earlier this year. Besides producing some amazing rock music, Mosko proved himself as quite a lyricist. The lyrics for the band always read like poetry, so it was a wise decision to release a book of lyrics for all to read and enjoy separate from the albums.
This book is a complete set of lyrics Moskovitch has written for the band. The Corridors always had a rebellious spirit and, in some ways, flew against fashion, but not in a bad way. They set their own course musically and lyrically. Though there are many stories of strength against all odds, Mosko taps into his own fears and demons. Although they challenge him, he conveys the ability to get through all the nightmares. Getting to the place of laying the demons aside, however, appears to be a struggle for Mosko. These sentiments are beautifully articulated throughout the volume of poems.
In terms of style, Mosko is influenced by the greats, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Roger Waters. These artists serve as an inspiration to be honest and expressive in his writing.
Overall, this is a great book of brilliant, mature, and deep-thinking poetry. Fans of The Corridors will enjoy this volume of poems, but others who read Free Spirit: Letting It All Go No Gravity To Hold could become new fans and perhaps branch out to the wonderful albums.
