 (1 Customer Review)
Washington state-based Amber Pacific overcome the sophomore slump with 2007's TRUTH IN SINCERITY, the follow-up to their successful debut THE POSSIBILITY AND THE PROMISE. While Amber Pacific's sleek pop-punk doesn't exactly leap out from similar-sounding peers, the group's combination of rock edge and cheery, infectious hooks is impressive. Moreover, Amber Pacific move away from the emo-tinged themes of most pop-punk acts by focusing instead on positive, life-affirming messages, as tunes like "You're Only Young Once" and "Follow Your Dreams, Forget the Scene" attest.
Almost two years after their hugely successful debut full-length, "The Possibility And The Promise" (SoundScanned over 65,000), comes "Truth In Sincerity". Amber Pacific brings you into their world through an instantly appealing, yet deep pop-punk style. While delivering infectious hooks and unforgettable melodies, the band communicates the realities of life and the idea that there's always brightness in the world. Look for them on this summer's Warped Tour. One track features Mike Herrera of MxPx.

Tara SloneJust Look Pretty and SingOfficial Bio – Winter 2007Here's a gnarled but handy homespun metaphor – to best study the surface of something, you must sweep aside all the stuff on top. It holds true in life and it holds especially true when considering the deeply personal, fiercely rocking new release from singer/songwriter Tara Slone, Just Look Pretty and Sing.Since Slone's career is already jammed with achievements and accolades (and some pretty snappy anecdotes), it's easy to be distracted from the story at hand. So to better focus on the new record, which Slone describes as "My baby… something that means the world to me," let's address a few things straight off and move on: · Yes, Tara Slone was the commanding voice of critically acclaimed pop/rock combo Joydrop. No they're not together anymore (record label woes, not bad blood) but the experience was defining and exalting.· Yes, Tara Slone was that dynamo, Sabbath-and-Bowie-belting chick (a finalist actually) on Rock Star: INXS. No she didn't win but she's fine with that. Really.· Yes, the album's title was inspired by a true-life comment made to Slone by someone she thought she knew. Yes it hurt like hell but it got her reflecting and songwriting. And no, she doesn't want to talk about it.Right, let's proceed. Almost three years in the making and built on a bedrock foundation of words and music by Slone and Jordon Zadorozny (Hole, Melissa Auf Der Maur, Blinker the Star), Just Look Pretty and Sing pits sheer rock ballast against knowing lyrical nuance, abiding melodic sensibilities against ferocious guitar squalls. That alone would make for a righteous rock record. But add to the mix Slone's sometimes gritty, sometimes angelic classically honed voice – an instrument of dazzling power and elasticity – and the result is nirvana. Not for nothing is Slone considered one of contemporary rock's most inimitable performers. "This record is just so meaningful for me. I don't want to rate it as more meaningful than Joydrop because Joydrop really informed this album," Slone allows. "But this is my baby and it means the world to me. I put my heart and soul into it and put my proverbial ass on the line," she cracks. "This is me, exposed."Whether she's wailing, as she does (in both French and English) on the album's snarling, blustery focus track, My Little Secret, or soaring high above the action in the poignant Adore, Slone's voice is the lifeblood of each song. If further proof of her exquisite command of a song is needed, consider Slone's brash take on the David Bowie chestnut Suffragette City. She effortlessly achieves the perfect balance between homage and reinterpretation."It was a song I performed on Rock Star: INXS," Slone explains. "I love the song, I love Bowie and it just seemed like a good addition to the record. We kind of took it and made it our own so it's not exactly like the original."As for the rest of the album, Slone says, "I tried very hard to write music that I love and to come from an honest place. Because this record came together over a long span of time, there was a lot of space for introspection. And this was the first time I felt very comfortable writing. "In Joydrop ...

Wayne's connection to music was sparked at an early age when he began taking piano lessons. Thought his feet could barely touch the floor, his ear was keen, and his imagination was great. By the time he was a teenager, he had already composed several instrumental pieces for piano and was eager to test his skill as a singer/songwriter. There was no turning back, as he found double the pleasure in communicating his thoughts and emotions through words and music.Many songs later, his dream of recording a CD has finally come true and he is eagerly walking into the next ...
