Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Thee essential MMJ record. A voice that's both honey & charcoal, deep Southern gothic canvases with gracious acoustic and electric guitars, painterly strokes of harpsichord, harmonica, lap steel, drums swimming in the deepest, darkest, widest pools of reverb, dirigible harmonies that will have you weeping, incensed atmosphere so thick, it's absolutely biblical. '...there's an undercurrent of fatalist resignation that rolls over you like the late-afternoon summer sun' - CMJ. 'At Dawn could be the perfect soundtrack to a summer road trip, or just something you wrap around yourself on the way to work each morning. 14 tracks. Darla. 2001.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My 2nd Favorite MMJ Album (After Z)
It took a while for me to "get" My Morning Jacket. But now that I finally figured out that Jim James is the new archangel of American rock, I've been working my way backwards through their studio work to discover what gems have yet to shine through my ears and tickle the musical capacitors in my brain.

With some bands, looking into the past can be a hazardous course. But the MMJ catalog proves to be an intriguing, if inconsistent, study in songwriting development with very few bumps ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - FYI FOR THE INTERESTED CONSUMER
Just so ya know, track 13 (Untitled) is a full 8 minutes and seven seconds. Amazon has it incorrectly listed as 3:08.

The song "Lowdown" is the high point here. Recorded music at its finest. Play the sample above and tell me I'm lying.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Awful - a review from outside Kentucky
I listened to "At Dawn" after having listened to "Z," which is their latest release. Like "Z," their songs ramble a bit and they go into long, drawn-out solos - a "jam band" if you will. However this album is much more crude and there is way too much reverb. Call me "urbanized," but the production values are poor and there is a lack of hooks throughout the entire length of album. The album is so long that the CD stops playing near the end on my computer's CD player - "Strangulation!" gets strangulated, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great, just great
I am now listening to this cd for the first time, and i have to say I love it!!! The music is mesmerizing, almost putting me into musical nirvana. I recommend it highly, as highly as I have ever recommended any cd!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Greatest album, maybe not even from this planet.
If you read my title, it sounds like I may be strange or just looking to be goofy, but after I saw My Morning jacket this year at Bonnaroo, I'm not totally convinced that Jim James and the rest of the crew is entirely human. The sound of Jim James and the dynamic sound of the band in full is beyond anything that should ever be possible from a mear mortal human being. The album, AT DAWN, has been one of my favorite five albums of all time for well over a year now, but it's an album that may possibly grow on ... Read More
