To the contrary, I see little risk of spontaneous laughter here... For New Music Monday this week, I'm going with the lead track from Cass McComb's 2011 album, Humor Risk . Those of you unfamiliar with Reselect's semi-official "new music" guidelines may think, "Hey, that's not all that new! What gives?" Well, what gives is that I have a 12-month allowance for music to be "new" enough to include here - after all, New Music Monday is only once a week, and I don't keep up with new releases as well as [...]

The new Cass McCombs album, though I did find it to be a little middle-of-the-road, is a nice change of pace for this singer-songwriter. A good handful of the songs here have a harder rock edge to 'em, and some pretty interesting stories laced into the lyrics. WATCH THE REVIEW

Cass McCombs - Humor Risk By Russell Warfield Coming just a few months after the gallows-bothering Wit’s End , there’s been quite a lot of (over)analysis about the inclusion of the word ‘humor’ in the title of Cass McCombs ’ second LP of the year, heralded by some as proof of this being a sharp departure from his last record. My first obvious objection to this conclusion: it’s almost inevitable that Humor Risk is going to seem comparatively sprightly when juxtaposed with the deathly [...]
Cass McCombs is playing The Echo this Wednesday, November 30. His latest full-length, Humor Risk,...
A mediados de septiembre estuvimos escuchando WIT'S END , un disco de Cass McCombs que ya sabíamos que iba a tener sucesor en poco tiempo. Y, efectivamente, el pasado 8 de noviembre se publicó a través de Domino Records Humor Risk , el segundo álbum que este artista publica en 2011. Ya sabemos que hay muchos artistas prolíficos o simplemente motivados que no se conforman con sacar a la venta un CD y esperar uno o dos años hasta el siguiente. No obstante, no [...]
Beeld: Cass McCombs - The Same Thing // Leuk van Cass dat hij ons favoriete nummer uit z’n laatste plaat van analoog beeldmateriaal voorziet. Wanneer de batterijen onzer mp3speler nog eens leeg zijn, kunnen we nu gewoon naar een leuk filmpje kijken. Waarvoor dank.
Cass McCombs’ second full-length of 2011, Humor Risk, is an ace-in-the-hole for anyone arguing that McCombs’ delivery is "classic", as in a singer-songwriting with a dominating presence who combines lyrical idiosyncrasy with a stylish smorgasbord of sounds from the past. In McCombs’ case on Humor Risk, he turns the sparsely somber romanticism on this year's

Cass McCombs - Second album in 2011 from the critically acclaimed, enigmatic songwriter and deadpan crooner is something of an emotional B-side to April's Wits End , displaying in muted colors a slightly more optimistic, even witty tone than End 's downbeat vibe...the stance is less confessional than observational, a theme of WTF resignation with the world and its weary inhabitants imbued with wry humor and a gauzy, near-opaque mystery // Release : Humor Risk (November 8, Domino) // Sounds like : in the hands once again of co-producer Ariel Rechtshaid, McComb's folk-based [...]
Cass McCombs Cass McCombs ' second album of 2011 - Humor Risk - follows April's WIT'S END on November 7th in the UK, and a day later elsewhere. In an era when our musicians and pop acts share so much of themselves with us, Cass McCombs' good old-fashioned fondness for the enigmatic (particularly in interviews) is actually kind of refreshing - it also allows you to focus on his music. You can do just that below - Humor Risk is now available to stream in its entirety. It's [...]
Listen in full to the 2nd LP in 2011 from the prolific North American indie/folk singer songwriter Cass McCombs, "Humor Risk" is out on Domino Records November 7 and its the follow from "Wit's End", its a bit more up-tempo with cheerful ballads but maintains Cass intimacy and melancholy trademarks.
