That José González his political views reluctantly reveals the lines of speakers as Zack de la Rocha, this may like to believe those who know the work of his band Junip or his solo albums.

He only breaks even, even on Vestiges And Claws, in a very personal, smaller units level down, wrapped it between the lines of his wonderfully fragile folk songs. He often appears as intensely as a teacher who forces the noisy class to listen, by emphasizing quietly speaks. And thus sings. Doubts as wonderful OpenBook: I feel just like an open book, exposing myself in this neighborhood, talking to people as if I'd knew them well, thinking That everyone has come through different kinds of well.
