Pillar: Rob Beckley (vocals); Noah Henson (guitars); Michael "Kalel" Wittig (bass guitar); Lester Estelle (drums).
With 2008's FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME, the Christian hard-rock act Pillar offers up more metallic anthems that sport themes of spiritual yearning. While those seeking crystal clear messages of faith may turn to other CCM bands, the Oklahoma-based group succeeds in appealing to a secular crowd, as evinced on "Turn It Up" and "Throwdown," which could fit seamlessly into the soundtrack of an NFL championship game.
While Pillar honed their trademark modern rock sound, the world changed around them. Rock fans in 2008 no longer sought the next Hoobastank, but instead had gravitated to the comfortable, family-friendly appeal of DAUGHTRY and Nickelback. As a result, real rock acts either found a new way to package themselves or became yesterday's trend. Thankfully, the four-man outfit from Tulsa found a way to be heard by millions of new listeners by marketing themselves at major sporting events, including Super Bowl XLII. The title track was picked up by ESPN for various promotions. The sound on For the Love of the Game varies little from Pillar's previous efforts, but a renewed focus gives it enough revitalization to pique some interest. These guys have always been comfortable in their own skin, and now they're apparently at home on SportsCenter as well. ~ Jared Johnson For The Love Of The Game Music Pillar For The Love Of The Game Songs For The Love Of The Game Music For The Love Of The Game Music Review Buy For The Love Of The Game CD Purchase For The Love Of The Game CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Morbid Angel Covenant CD (1993)

With the 1991 compilation A Decade of Hits 1969-1979 still in print, you may ask why Polydor found it necessary to release The Best of the Allman Brothers Band as part of the Universal Music Group's 20th Century Masters/The Millennium Collection. After all, the new 11-track album shares nine selections with ...
| | Darling Downs From One To Another CD (2007) Digipak
For The Love Of The Game
$10.49
The Darling Downs: Ron Peno (vocals, hand claps, foot stamps); Kim Salmon (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, banjo, background vocals).
Personnel: Clare Moore (xylophone, drum, tambourine, triangle).
Audio Mixer: Dave Graney.
A quick look at From One to Another's cover will conjure up images of the film Deliverance. In a sepia-toned photo, two men stand close to one another. One sports a scowl, an ill-fitting suit and close-cut grey hair; the other is a scruffy-haired man holding a banjo. The latter man also wears a polka dot tie, a clue that this duo might not be from the Georgia backwoods. This twosome, in fact, hails from Australia. The scowling man is singer Ron Peno, the charismatic frontman of the '80s/'90s punk band Died Pretty, while the banjo man is Kim Salmon, the acclaimed Aussie guitarist best known for his tenure in the Scientists. The Darling Downs, however, is a band radically different from the groups of their youths. Here they are mining a spare, simple acoustic Americana sound that basically consists of Peno's rural twang and Salmon's picking on a banjo or guitar. A good example of their unadorned, casual approach is "There's a Light, Pt. 2," a gospel-infused folk number that sounds ...

The albums of successful confessional singer/songwriters tend to be like yearly Christmas letters from friends, and John Denver -- or at least, the "I" in his songs -- wants to tell his pen pals that he's been to the Far East since they last heard from him. That's the dateline of "Shanghai Breezes," which ...

Mudhoney didn't invent grunge, and Sub Pop Records had close to twenty releases under their belt when they unleashed the band's first 12" release, Superfuzz Bigmuff, in 1988. But if this wasn't the first shot fired in the battle to bring The Seattle Sound to the four corners of the world, it was the first one that well and truly hit the target. Superfuzz Bigmuff codified the first wave of grunge the way the Model T codified the first modern automobile; this is where the ingredients came together in a way that clicked with listeners, reworking the rudiments of hard rock and garage punk into a formula that made sense in the world of alternative rock. The band's snarky wit, brazenly sloppy guitar work, and songs that combined melodic hooks with Godzilla-sized riffage reinterpreted the visceral kick of metal into a format that celebrated its power while stripping it of its pomposity. And Superfuzz Bigmuff's six songs captured a great ...
