I do believe in the power of the acoustic song, and I am most certainly a fan of acoustic music. I am also a huge fan of the good points in Anthony Greens' career (Saosin, 'Act Appalled'). "Avalon" is a nice collection of songs, but not much more than that. Really, as with most of his work, you either love Mr. Green or you despise him; I have met both types of people and I personally can see both sides, but ultimately fall into the 'like' category. Fans must have it; maybe it will make you a fan- check it out

You gotta really love A Green's voice to get into this - but all the same, it's a beautiful album. It's eerie, too - I went to Avalon many times as a child, and get a familiar chill when listening to the new songs on the album. I need to go back there.

Anthony Green released another uninspired album full of half-finished songs and filler, with a few gems in the mix. Listen to "Slow Down (Long Time Coming)", "Devil's Song", "She Loves Me So" and "Miracle Sun" by other means and save your money.

His voice, I gotta tell, it's damn polarising. Borderline annoying, as some of the tracks are here. But the rest is still decent enough to get your attention.

As much as I love Anthony Green, this album isn't strong enough as an album even though it has some great tracks in it. The likes Dear Child, She Loves Me So, and Stonehearted Man are very good, but the lack of flow, imagination in production, and memorable moments, make the album sounds dull no matter how many times I've heard it. But this album is just the beginning of the greats. Recommended tracks: She Loves Me So, Dear Child, Stonehearted Man

I like what he's doing separating most of his personal life into this solo project; but the songs are mostly boring, inconsistent and the tone is all over the place.

The album could have been better. "Drugdealer" soars above the rest along with "Slowing Down (Long Time Coming)". People have to realize that the making of this album was brought upon solely for the reason that AG had ideas that didn't fit into Circa's grand scheme of things. Originally, Anthony didn't want to do the album and wanted to focus on advancing Circa, buut the guys ebcouraged him to make Avalon. And it certainly wasn't a waste of time. Anthony's "Beautiful Things" (his long-in-production second solo album) will be similarly folkish and acoustic...but certainly better I hope.

Anthony Green's overtly long album touches upon folksy pop in a rather austere way, marrying pretense and boredom in one [b]FAR TOO MOTHERFUCKING LONG[/b record.

powerful acoustic music from an artist that everyone expect something amazing from.

good album.... i think i like the remix album better though Colin Frangicetto did a good job at making it more catchy without making it too poppy. I'm liking Green's lyrical content on this as well, not as abstract as Circa but it works for me.
