 (10 Customer Reviews)
Listening to the doom and gloom that permeates Earshot's sophomore effort, the initial sonic resemblance to Tool is striking. Although guitar-playing vocalist Wil Martin sounds like Tool's Maynard Keenan at times, Earshot manages to stake its own musical claim via the churning guitars of Mike Callahan and Scott Kohler and the pulsing rhythm section of bassist Johnny Sprague and drummer Chas Stumbo. Betrayal and angst are the orders of the day throughout the hills and valleys of these potent songs. Here Martin touches on plenty of dark subject matter, be it a horrible break-up (a tormented "Tongue-Tied"), or a desperate escape from a grim situation (the soaring "Goodbye"). However, Earshot does find a silver lining amid all the bad scenarios, particularly the epic "Nice to Feel the Sun," featuring a throng of howling choruses and crashing chords. With TWO, Earshot encapsulates emotional wear-and-tear in a heavy yet engaging package.

Earshot is an example of a band that deserves more credit than they get. I never once heard this album on the radio, the only way I found out about it was through musicchoice. Wait and Down are two tracks that I think make this album worth buying. Check out Earshot, buy their album or tracks, give them credit so they can continue to make music.

Wil Martin has evolved from being Tool wannabe to Alice in Chains. Check out the digs on tracks 9 & 10. 'Rotten Inside'? You take a step too far lyrically to include the dopest title on earth. There's a ballad to surface?
Kamikaze! Still excited if Wil & the gang could put out record #3 to include the techniques of both worlds used this far. Step up a notch? Maybe? Huh! This sounds more refined and loose that I've ever heard before.

Besides Wait, this album gets old real fast. Plus, Should've Been There is the lamest song I've heard from a rock band yet. It's nice for a first listen or two but I recommend not wasting money on it.

$12.79 
Representing a classic case of delayed fame, Italian goth-metal act Lacuna Coil broke into the American music consciousness via a much talked-about showing on the Ozzfest 2004 second stage, nearly two years after the release of their third album, COMALIES. Similar to its American counterparts Evanescence, this European sextet features the dual vocals of Cristina Scabbia and her male counterpart, Andrea Ferro. Despite the liberal amounts of keyboards added to the mix, guitarists Cristiano Migliore and Marco Biazzi more than hold their own, pumping ...

This is a Hyper CD, which contains regular audio tracks and also provides a link to the artist's website with the help of a web browser.
At first listen, Swedish rockers Blindside might sound similar to their American pals P.O.D. However, Blindside's fourth album, ABOUT A BURNING FIRE, is their most fully realized effort to date, bringing the band's unique take on heavy rock into distinct and full focus.
Refreshingly light on the kind of screaming vocals that have become a cliche over the years (Christian Lindskog's tuneful self-harmonizing is one of the group's major ...

Built around an unprecedented father and son collaboration of original composition and guitar interplay, the "Joes" achieve a unique sound by fusing various styles and genres. Although both guitarists possess their own individuality, the use of counterpoint, harmony, contrary motion and other devices allow them to blend as one voice. All material reflects the exploration of modern concepts with traditional form, giving the Joe DeCara Group their innovative style.Joe DeCara Sr. started playing guitar at the age of 4 years old. Having a good ear for picking out melodies he soon was learning some basic chord fingerings by observing his neighbor during their weekly band rehearsals. Over the next few years Joe augmented his repertoire of songs and the handful of chords that he knew. This took place from 1959 until 1963 when The Beatles came out and changed the music world. As far back as he can remember Joe played in bands; from grade school through high school. In the early to mid ‘70's Joe performed in night clubs, concerts and doing studio sessions as both a sideman and a leader. In 1973 he became interested in classical guitar and concentrated his efforts in learning compositions by Villa Lobos, Tarrega, Fernando Sor, Johann Sebastian Bach, Matteo Carcassi to name a few. Concurrent with studying classical guitar Joe had an admiration for Jazz and was soon woodshedding hours a day learning the repertoire of the jazz legends. In 1975 he met and jammed with legendary jazz guitarist Joe Pass and got together several times thereafter when Pass was playing in town. He went on to meet and play with other Jazz greats, Lenny Breau and Ted Greene in the years to follow. In 1979 Joe moved briefly to Los Angeles, California and met studio guitar giant Dennis Budimir. Dennis introduced Joe to the studio which was unlike anything he’s ever experienced. The brilliant scores written by master composers and performed by the finest musicians in the world, set to a scene in a movie or for television was something that would forge Joe’s writing style and playing in the future.
