Sounds Like: This band needs to be heard!!
Finally, a band of talented, tight and original musicians are making music that is not just an endless array of arpeggios with occasional blue notes mixed in.I get a sense that all of the musicians are all on the same page. Rather than any one of them basking in their own glory, they all work together at making a single song sound really good.The vocals were tight and relevant however not powerful. If the same singer/s overdubbed a few more voices, the hooks could sound more powerful.The classical inspired guitar solo and the synth drums made me feel like I was listening to some rare mid-80's Frank Zappa song.Overall, this band is tight, original, and has the knowledge to write at least one great song.Extra Credit: Guitars, Bass, Melody, Originality, Most Rocking Track.- ckight Respond to this reviewer
