| | Atomship Crash Of '47 CD Atomship Discography of CDs
 (9 Customer Reviews)
Referencing the alleged alien UFO crash near Roswell, NM, Atomship's The Crash of '47 is pretty unique compared to most of its contemporary hard rock peers. Most of that is due to the vocal approach of Joey Culver, who has a clear, powerful voice that at times sounds like an amalgam of Ozzy Osbourne, José Feliciano, and Brandon Boyd. Speaking of the latter, the alluring, acoustic "Withered" is a dead ringer for Incubus, but Atomship's vibrant riffs and thumping rhythms are most often at work, propelling the forceful, Creed-like roll of "Day of Daze" and the melodic, System of a Down-derived crunch of "Aliens." The group is most distinct on the intricate "Mothra," where an intricate, percussive, Rush-like arrangement makes Atomship sound like today's answer to prog rock. Like it or not, this is a talented band with a promising future. ~ John D. Luerssen

Crash Of '47 Music Review Average Rating: (4.1 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Different But Great
This CD has a lot to offer to the alternative rock fan. Very different voice and sound with these guys but songs like Agent Orange and Aliens really stick out to me. Give this cd a try.

Great album
This is one great progressive rock album. The drummer is clearly talented, as well as the vocalist... with haunting sung vocals (Dragonfly, Withered) to angry shouting (Mothra, Angent Orange), to spoken vocals (Pencil Fight). The lyrics are complex and abstract. The music ranges from gentle to heavy. In Mothra the middle section is almost death metal-ish! The polymetric beats are awesome

It isn't hard to find listeners who aren't huge fans of progressive rock on the whole but are passionate followers of certain prog bands -- and if you ask them why they enjoy Pink Floyd, Yes, or the Moody Blues so much more than they enjoy other prog bands, they'll tell you that their favorites have mastered something that the others haven't: great hooks. And without a doubt, hooks are a major reason why some of IQ's most devoted followers are people who don't necessarily ...

| | Five Finger Death Punch War Is The Answer CD (2009)
Crash Of '47 CD music
$11.59
Five Finger Death Punch stormed rock radio in 2007 with "The Bleeding" (from debut album THE WAY OF THE FIST), a powerful, emotionally tense track that matched vintage, Metallica-style thrash with a throat-shredding chorus more typical of late aughts metalcore. The Los Angeles-based band's sophomore disc WAR IS THE ANSWER mines much of the same territory as that breakout song, keeping the flame of the classic `80s Four Horsemen sound alive with snap-tight chugga-chugga guitar rhythms, minor-key, classical music-inspired clean/acoustic passages, and vocals dripping with a James Hetfield-approved combination of sensitive angst and macho defiance. ...

Johnny Crawford began his prolific career in 1955 as a first-generation Mouseketeer, and by the end of the decade he was playing Mark McCain on the weekly Western drama The Rifleman. During the show's fourth season Crawford explored an alternate vocation, eventually cutting three LPs for the indie Del-Fi label. His second outing, 1962's A Young Man's Fancy, offers another 11 selections in much the same fashion as his debut, The Captivating Johnny Crawford, released earlier that year. Although merely a teenager, Crawford possessed a sonorous tenor that was well matched to the dramatic ability ...
