Is Sarah McLachlan a secret punk rocker? To be sure, her rebellion is hushed. On Afterglow, her first studio album since 1997's Surfacing, McLachlan's music is as tempered as ever; at times even the piano chords at the heart of the sound are tucked neatly beneath layer upon layer of strings and overdubbed voices. Listen to what's being sung within this soothing aural bed, though, and hear the just-before-sleep murmurings of the quietest riot grrl: "I'm a train wreck waiting to happen.... a wildfire born of frustration," "How stupid could I be.... you're no good for me, but you're the only one I see," "I have to push just to see how far you'll go." The latter song ("Push") resolves itself with the assurance, "You complete me." Ultimately, McLachlan fans will be comforted again by what turns out to be her reliably untroubled aesthetic. --Rickey Wright

3 out of 5 stars Slightly Disappointing...but redeemable.   November 23, 2008
I have always loved SM, but this CD did not offer me anything new, with the exception of 'Answer'. This one song makes the CD somewhat redeemable. I like the rest of the CD okay, but it's not one that's going to be in the CD rotation of favorites.


5 out of 5 stars Sharon's Review   November 11, 2008
Was extremely satisfied with product and the manner in which delivery was handled. Always satisfied with Amazon.


3 out of 5 stars Sarah McLauglin   October 17, 2008
Very nice, but not what I expected. It is necessary to read the lyrics to understand.


4 out of 5 stars Beautiful as ever   October 11, 2008
Afterglow is exceptional. Sarah has a beautiful voice and is one of the very best Jazz vocalists. This album is very good and a great pleasure to listen to.


4 out of 5 stars Another wonderful album!   June 9, 2008
Sarah McLachlan is one of my favorite artists and this album provides more of her signature style. An incredibly beautiful voice, haunting melodies, and emotional lyrics mark this as another wonderful album!
