Review

Wowza, let me take you back to '93 with Counting Crows' dynamite debut, "August and Everything After." Produced by the legend T Bone Burnett, this album is an absolute gem in the alt-rock scene. With Adam Duritz's soulful lyrics and the band's eclectic mix of folk, rock, and pop, it’s no wonder tracks like "Mr. Jones" climbed the charts like they were climbing beanstalks. And talking about that single? It was the beacon that lit up the Billboard chart, reaching number 5 on U.S. Radio Songs and a sizzling number 2 on genre-specific charts.

The album's lush instrumentation is like a colorful 90s collage—accordions, mandolins, pedal steel, and harmonicas all playing nice together. Critics couldn’t get enough, Rolling Stone and AllMusic were all over it. With over seven million copies sold in the U.S. alone, "August and Everything After" didn't just drop onto the scene—it owned it. The deluxe editions are just the cherry on top, including bonus tracks and a live album that capture a raw and powerful concert experience. Counting Crows crafted a sonic masterpiece that remains a golden standard in alternative rock, making every listen feel like a rich, nostalgic trip down memory lane with a 90s mixtape feel. - Brooke
