Ben Watt turned his mid-life crisis into 'Storm Damage' - "the best record of his career"
"'Storm Damage' is an album by a man in his late 50s, musing on his life, lost love, changing surroundings, and mortality. By some incredible sleight of hand, he's managed to make that unpalatable dish, delicious"- PopMatters says in a review of Ben Watt's new album. Here, "he's backed by a cohort of musicians who embellish his music beautifully", but "the star of the show is his lyrics".
