| | 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

Dutch pomp-metal band Epica, fronted by classically trained mezzo-soprano Simone Simons, released their second album for Nuclear Blast only a year after their label debut, the more unique The Classical Conspiracy. That two-disc live set found them performing a mix of classical works and their own songs with backing by a full orchestra and choir. This album offers more of their bombastic goth metal songs, with Simons' vocals floating atop an ever flowing stream of complicated drumming, epic riffs, and shredtastic solos. The use of orchestral ...
| | Tool Aenima CD (1996) (Import) Germany
Crash Of '47 songs
$13.49 
AENIMA was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Recording Package. "Aenima" won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance.
On its second full-length album, this hard-rocking quartet delivers 15 tracks of unrelenting aggression and focused intensity. Rather than overwhelm with huge sonic washes of guitar and booming drums, Tool employs a propulsive, snaky approach that makes use of undulating rhythms and clipped, percussive guitar riffs. Maynard James Keenan's vocals follow suit, opting for a heavily processed slow burn instead of the post-grunge bellow favored by so many hard-rock bands. Instead of flailing uncontrollably in all directions, the group's raw, energetic sound is tightly directed for maximum impact.

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 he brought to his performances. As his fan base consisted primarily of adolescent females, it is no surprise that the majority of the material could rightfully be considered love songs. This effort fittingly commences ...
