Jacket Full of Danger

Following his debut with the Moldy Peaches, the now 24 year-old New Yorker has never ceased to rally against the predictable and obvious. Jacket Full of Danger shows Adam at his most powerful, stretching out stylistically on each song and defying what we've come to expect from the little kid who used to dress up as Robin Hood. "Party Line" is a melodic party stomp, Beat Happening cover "Cast A Shadow" thaws the hippest scenester’s cool, "Drugs" is an infectious brew of melody, snark, and heart, while "Novotel" is an undeniable highlight—if you don't trust us, just ask Little Richard, who upon hearing the R&B beats matched by Adam's deep drawl, said he'd never heard anything like it. Adam Green's not like anyone else. Jacket Full Of Danger proves it. The CD is enhanced with the video for "Nat King Cole."
