For an artist who's been accused of being wildly inconsistent, Ryan Adams' last five albums have been unfailingly uniform. From "Love is Hell" through 2005's trilogy of country rock gems and now "Easy Tiger", Adams has adhered to acoustic arrangements, sad songs and some of the best songwriting of this century. His last project, producing Willie Nelson's album "Songbird" probably gave him insight into how to tame his prolific nature and, as the title suggests, chill.
