This is fun! With a smoke and a beer in hand I could
easily drift away with
a group of friends dancing and laughing, the weight
of the world floating
away while listening to this band. Sway your head
and even move your body a
bit, feel the music! Any band that can make me day-dream
of relaxing is a
gift in my book! I can just visualize the endless
hours of serenity and
release this album holds for me.
As my interest in this band increased I wanted to
gain more understanding of
the band. As I am a fan of MySpace I looked them up.
They give credit to
Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin, Red Hot Chili Peppers and
Miles Davis as some of
their many influences; you can easily see parts of
each of them displayed
throughout the album.
So check out this album and not merely just out of
curiosity! Make sure to
linger a bit with the first song, Anywhere I Go, just
to get into the mood of
the album. Then if you must bounce around instead
of settling in and just
enjoying the whole thing make sure you land on 2 AM
but defiantly turn up
Above the Clouds. They are all fun songs and the opportunities
are endless
where it might take your night.
Once you begin to enjoy the album you will see rather
quickly why they were
asked to play this year at Lollapalooza. This mature
and well put together
band is sure to please, so what are you waiting for?
Go enjoy!
