Sounds Like:
Reviewer: Monk. INDEPENDENTSONLY.COM Like the crazy funked up offspring of Leonard Cohen and Cake, Los Angeles' Led Man jump from the gate with "hooks" that will leave you like a fiend wanting more. Each song balancing skillfully on a sharp groove, the disc spirals into a surplus of blues influenced rock grounded in friendly, nearly pop licks and warm vocals. "Golden" is an audio book crammed with easily accessible, highly addictive licks, nicely packaged. If you pursue Led Man further than this review, your time with us will not be ill spent. R.I.Y.L.: Leonard Cohen meets Cake meets Frank Black.
***** Excellence
Reviewer: Mick Hubbard, MFV Radio
This CD is bona-fide art! A Great example of talent running loose when you let it all come out to it's full potential. I recommend you buy this CD and play it often!

Led Man: Golden (February 2006 Spotlight) I was reading the notes to this CD, I expected more or less lots of hype and no substance What a surprise I got This has to be one of the best CD's I have reviewed in a long, long time. I love when a group cannot be defined by other artists and have there own sound. I am at a loss to say how this group sounds as the lyrics and the vocals and all aspects are unique. My best way to sum up this disc is simply to say to you is go out and get a copy !!!
