DOUG RATNER & THE WATCHMEN – LESSONS WELL LEARNED EP 2012

Posted on October 6, 2012 in All Exclusive,Alt Rock,Melodic Rock | AOR by Alex F

NOW!

Hailing from Springfield, Massachusetts, Doug Ratner & the Watchmen’s main claim to fame is getting banned from a popular TV show, Mass Appeal, in their hometown, for their song Bomb in the Backseat. It appears the show neither listened to the song nor understood it’s meaning. They only heard the references to bombs and explosions. O well.Ratner and company play a blend of classic guitar rock with some modern alt references. Here’s the skinny on their debut EP Lessons Well Learned. First, if you give it more than a few spins, it will grow on you. But the significant songs are three.

SEVEN KINGDOMS – THE FIRE IS MINE 2012

Posted on October 6, 2012 in Melodic Rock | AOR by Alex F

Seven Kingdoms commitment to melodic power metal continues on their third release, The Fire Is Mine. Led by the clear and passionate vocals of Sabrina Valentine’s vocals, Seven Kingdom effortlessly combines speed and heaviness with melody to invigorate the American power metal genre.

There’s little more to be said about Valentine’s vocal prowess that wasn’t said in my review of 2010’sSeven Kingdoms. She remains the classic female metal vocalist, singing clean and strong, but also avoiding the extremes of outrageously operatic or gruesome growling. (It appears, overall, that the band has abandoned the growling found briefly in their last release.)

THE COMO BROTHERS BAND – THE SPEED OF SOUND EP (2012)

Posted on October 6, 2012 in All Exclusive,Indie Rock,Melodic Rock | AOR by Alex F

TODAY!

Long Island based Como Brothers seem a little conflicted on their new EP, The Speed of Sound. Sandwiched between the positive chick songs You Are My World and Can I Be Matched With You is a nearly vitriolic rant against an unfortunate gal, I Don’t Like You.

I’m hoping, maybe, that first song is about one of the brother’s pet dog or infant daughter, and the last about online dating services, as one Como bro seems pretty pissed about some chick. Otherwise, The Como Brothers Band is about some very good music. It has a foundation of classic melodic rock, with a touch of blues, and enough alt-indie edge to make the hipsters take notice. It’s nearly raw,
