(8 Customer Reviews)
The second studio album to feature the revamped Gov't Mule lineup, 2006's HIGH & MIGHTY finds the adventurous Southern rock quartet breaking into a confident new stride. As always, vocalist/guitarist Warren Haynes's soulful singing and blistering slide work lead the way, as the rest of the band intuitively fill out his compositions with impressive rhythmic and melodic flourishes. Although the fierce opening track, "Mr. High & Mighty," may have listeners thinking Gov't Mule has morphed into a straight-up hard-rock act, other songs delve into reggae ("Unring the Bell") and gospel-tinged blues ("Million Miles from Yesterday"), revealing that the ensemble remains as eclectic as ever.

Rolling Stone (p.196) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he closing remix of 'I'm a Ram,' titled 'Plasticine Era,' is a hip minefield of wah-wah-guitar bark..." Entertainment Weekly (p.86) - "[T]he sledge-hammer sound remains as punishing as ever....Their dedication to craft is edifying, life-affirming, and deeply satisfying." -- Grade: A- Gov't Mule High & Mighty Songs High & Mighty Music Review Average Rating: (3.9 out of 5 stars)    List All Reviews songwriting is . . . impeccable. i have to agree with jbird that this one is way better than deja voodoo which i found a major disappointment after liking EVERYTHING the band has done in the past. from start to finish good songs abound.

oops . . . .running short on ideas Great musicians but lousy, boring songwriting do not make for a great CD. Not to be a party-pooper or anything but as much as I love Haynes and company, this one is a complete snoozer. Boring! Submitted by lloben (Sacramento, CA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
best one yet This one is their best one yet;I am so into the first 5 cuts,I find it hard to not go back and play them again and again and again....streamline woman,brand new angel,so weak so strong,and 3 finger george are the highlights-this one needs to be played REAL loud;it is way better than deja voo-doo,which I thought was kind of weak.This one is a must buy.

Great! I was so pleased with this new album.Great songs great playin'.
This was so refreshing than their last album which i found kinda weak.
This new albun is brilliant! Submitted by bunster36 (Wildomar,Ca,USA) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
The beginning of the end...? Unfortunately it seems Warren begins to run out of good ideas...After 5 very good albums and many collaborations,the time has come...If you're a fan you already have it, but if you're a newcomer ,choose one of the first 3 (or all of them).
Hope we see them live sometime down here!
Warren are you listening...??? Submitted by kostas2112 (Larisa,Hellas) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

| | Gov't Mule Life Before Insanity CD (2000) (Import) Germany
High & Mighty CD music
$9.75 In 1997, following a short period of splitting time between the Allman Brothers Band and Gov't Mule, Warren Haynes left the former to concentrate full-time on the latter. With Haynes' rededication to the band, Mule went on to resurrect and expand upon the power-trio concept first pioneered by Cream and Mountain. Much like its predecessors, the Mule's fifth album, LIFE BEFORE INSANITY, continues to be yoked to leader Haynes' gruff vocals and formidable guitar playing.
This time around, the Mule wanders away from its blues-rock roots, embracing a creative expansion marked by odd time signatures and more of a low-key delivery. Haynes' soulful vocals are an especially appropriate match for the haunting "Tastes Like Wine" and the goosebump-inducing title track. Elsewhere, the Mule welcomes such guests as Ben Harper on the meandering "Lay Your ...

High & Mighty album
$10.55 Is Paik's fourth album supreme sonic sludge, or just supremely sludgy? That might depend on your taste for grim, power-trio instrumental drone rock that mixes metal, psychedelia, and noise, but certainly never tries to be feel-good. With five extended pieces running to nearly an hour's playing time, there's little if any compromise in their morass ...
