'Unfollow the Rules' is Rufus Wainwright's 9th studio album, a "deluxe" version. It includes the French versions "PIÈCE À VIVRE" (PEACEFUL AFTERNOON) and "HAINE" (HATRED) written by Renan Luce. It combines the best elements of previous, critically acclaimed albums. This is the album of maturity that establishes Wainwright as one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time. Musical styles and tastes may change, but whatever the genre, the heart of each song betrays the composer's talent, and it is undeniable that Rufus is among the greatest. With 'Unfollow the Rules', he abandons the angsty, demon-filled, drug and debauchery-laden musical sphere of his youth, the baroque splendor, and gives way to the adult voice contemplating the life of a father, a husband, and an involved global citizen. 'Unfollow the Rules' is not arid; it remains a Wainwright album teeming with musical ideas, but its exuberance and richness are channeled and essential without overwhelming everything. This album is definitive, overflowing with inspiration, rich and moving.
