Critic Reviews
Show All-
Independent
2018 - He still has the voice, but with his 30th album, Stewart has spread himself too thin.
-
All Music
2018 - Stewart's adoption of modern trends may not be especially graceful but it's oddly endearing and underscores tackiness and all.
-
USA Today
2018 - Blood Red Roses explores nostalgia, reminisces about youth.
-
RTE
2018 - It wasn’t that that album was chock-full of sparkling Rod originals, but he made the featured covers utterly his own, they melded well and easily with the new songs.
-
Herald Standard
2018 - On his 30th solo studio album, the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee adds his raspy, well-seasoned voice to a 13-track set filled with intimate and sincere songwriting from an older and wiser perspective.
-
Cryptic Rock
2018 - It is modern, yet old fashion.
-
The Sunday Times
2018 - The septuagenarian is in reflective mode for his 30th studio album, but let’s face it, he’s not Leonard Cohen.
-
MSN
2018 - Nostalgia has been a focal feature of Rod Stewart's songwriting and "Blood Red Roses," his 30th studio album, explores that same vein.
-
Daily Mail
2018 - Stewart's classic rasp is slightly silkier and still effective but "Blood Red Roses," actually a whaling term, is a bit all over the flower shop.
-
Metro News
2018 - At its most effective, however, Stewart turns his wonderfully gravelly voice to the mournful and elegiac.
-
Original Rock
2018 - Rod has abandoned this highly lucrative formula for a while to assemble “Blood Red Roses” however, joining forces once again with long term collaborator Kevin Savigar to pen a varied musical package whose contents run the gamut from the snappy.
-
Ultimate Classic Rock
2018 - The songwriting and rootsy sound that won fans over 50 years ago? That’s the standard he should shoot for and Blood Red Roses is a step in that direction.
-
The Arts Desk
2018 - Rod Stewart continues to hit the spot: he never fails to deliver well-crafted music that draws from the wide range of styles that he clearly loves.
-
Udiscovermusic
2018 - Blood Red Roses continues the latest chapter in Stewart’s epic career, which has seen his return to songwriting and storytelling as he continues to thrill audiences.
