A Change Of Pace – An Offer You Can’t Refuse (CD)

While the first few tracks of “An Offer You Can’t Refuse” are fairly pedestrian, it is the ending of the disc’s second track “Death Do Us Part” that really show A Change of Pace’s worth as a band.

Chantal Chamandy – Love Needs You (CD)

Chantal starts off “Love Needs You” in an interesting way; “Zindegi” really has an operatic feel to it that moves into a jazz influenced type of pop track. This bizarre mesh of styles will call listeners’ attention quickly, and even if it was only done for the shock value (this is not the case, as the track is very well-crafted and catchy), individuals are locked in for at least a…

Chach – To Destroy Your Boyfriend’s Confidence (CD)

It’s been a few years since I heard Hoobastank, and Chach really makes me miss them (not really); their “Monte Carlo Blues” actually sounds like what Hoobastank would sound like if they had anything in thye way of talent. Strong vocals mix it up with the confident strokes of a guitar and splashing drums to create a track that is ready for rock radio any way you slice it. The…

Cesar – Worlds of Change (CD)

Starting off “Worlds of Change” with “Get Up and Dance”, a Enrique Iglesias/ Marc Antony-style of track replete with rich Spanish (Argentine in Cesar’s case) guitar work. The same formula holds up during the disc’s second track, “One Day You’ll Be Mine”. What is immediately striking about “Worlds of Change” is the fact that the songs on the disc are both radio friendly and also the repository for what is…

Centrifuse – Lizard In The Wires (CD)

The harder instrumental opening to “Lizard In The Wires’” first track “Brothel really belies the more Radiohead/Muse/Placebo sound of the vocals. What is most exciting during the track is the nuanced sound of the arrangements; far from just using power chords, the band creates a full sound by having interesting contrasts (most interesting of which being the interplay of the deep bass and the much lighter guitar). The guitar noodling…
