Before there was Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart," there was just Trevor Rabin. He had gotten his professional start in the South African band Rabbit and Face to Face was his second solo release after that band. The album, released in 1980, is very nearly a true solo release, with Rabin only joined by drummers and a backing vocalist. The music presented here shows an artist who has not yet reached his maturity in terms of songwriting. That said, there are some inspired moments that show flashes of what was to be. The overall mode, though, is that of a fairly hard-edged, straight-ahead rock & roll style. One exception to this is "I'm Old Enough (To Make You a Woman)," which finds its roots more in an arena rock ballad type of format. Other points of interest include "You," a somewhat Beatles-influenced ballad. However, while that cut presents a different sound than the bulk of the album, it is rather generic and a bit heavy-handed at times. The track that follows it, though, is a true standout. This song, entitled, "Now," has an outstanding vocal arrangement and strong dramatic texture that really sets it apart. By the last two tracks on the disc, Rabin seems to have hit his stride. The first of those is "Candy's Bar," a Head East-oriented tune that has an exceptional arrangement. The album closer is "Always the Last One." It is a Queen-ish screamer that features one of the best arrangements on the album. Even those tracks cannot really save the disc from mediocrity, though. It is a CD that ...

| | Mr T Experience Miracle Of Shame CD (2000) Extended Play
Collections music CDs
$5.99
The Mr. T Experience sticks with producer Kevin Army once again on The Miracle of Shame EP, maintaining their indie rock sound that plays into the punk predecessors before them. Echoing the glassy hums of fellow indie poster boys such as Pavement's Stephen Malkmus and Lou Barlow of Sebadoh, Dr. Frank's vocals are wispy and oddly poetic. He's a crooner in his own way, swooning over social ...

You always know a June Tabor album means quality, thoughtful performances, interesting material, and wonderful arrangements -- along with that spellbinding, velvet autumn voice. For this disc she's assembled her dream team of musicians -- her usual accompanists plus Martin Simpson, Andy Cutting, and a couple of others -- to play on a fascinating collection of songs. The emphasis is on the traditional, but she hardly confines herself to pieces like "The Banks of the Sweet Primeroses," but also pieces by contemporary writers, and the jazz standard "Do Nothing 'til You Hear from Me," which is the only piece that doesn't quite work. By itself it's fine, but set alongside the relative sobriety of the folk material, its tone seems to jar a little (at the same time, her version of "Heart Like a Wheel" flows with an elegant grace). She seems most at home on the folk songs -- modern or old -- bringing a sly sense of humor to "The Broomfield Wager," for example, and a real ache to "Oh! Alas I Am in Love." As her recent box set showed, she's one of Britain's great singers, developing over the years, and this really does show her at the height of her powers, with a majestic control, and flawless backing. This stands as one of her very best albums -- which is high praise indeed. ~ Chris Nickson
This is June Tabor's first new work since 2003's award winning "An Echo Of Hooves" (TOP #543). In the past two years, June's profile ...
| | Destroy The Runner Saints CD (2006)
Collections CD music
$12.45 
San Diego's Destroy the Runner occupy that melodic area in metal where They're Only Chasing Safety-era Underoath resides. The band doesn't completely pummel listeners into the ground with vicious intensity and bone-rattling growls, since whenever the music is threatening to slip entirely into murderous terrain, heartwarming melody and bright singing emerge from behind the storm of thunderous guitars and pummeling drums. Their sonic attack is akin to bands like From Autumn to Ashes and Norma Jean, the quintet understanding the loud-soft dynamic to a "T" on their Solid State debut Saints, and they're unafraid to switch directions multiple times within a song. Just as "From the Red" spits and growls along with heavy riffing and quick double bass kicks, guitars suddenly swell together with uplifting vocal harmonies that overpower most everything else before dropping back to the intensity of their metal ways. And like ...
