Sorry for the disappointment, but
these guys rock.
John Freeman leads the band on
rhythm guitar and vocals, and belts
out the lyrics in a raspy, hoarse voice.
Don’t misunderstand; this fits in per
fectly with the music. He makes the
listener want to sing along.
The music is hard to put into one
category. It is reminiscent of early
1980s punk - a pre-headbanging,
thrashing type of music. The only
way to attempt to categoric The
Magnolias is to make a collage of The
Cult, Rush, the Replacements and
Soul Asylum.
The songs arc raw and seemingly
uninfluenced. The only exception is.
Tom Lischmann, lead guitar. He plays
with a fervor that needs a stage to be
captured completely. His riffs are clean
and clear, and the resulting sound is
incredibly intense.
“Dime Store Dream” starts off
with “Asking the Time.” From the
moment this song starts, it is obvious
that the listener is in for a rockin’
good time. The lyrics arc simple but
not stupid. The music also is fired up
enough for dancing and partying.
Other notable songs include
“Pardon Me,” “Shirley’s Looking
Down" and “Coming on Too Strong.”
The Magnolias are even able to
sing a ballad, “I’ve Been Gone.”
They pull it off while maintaining
their raw, powerful edge.
.Drummer Tom Cook gives a fan
tastic performance - his fills arc
breathtaking, and his songs arc full
and dynamic. The music pulses with
his beat.
One of the great things about The
Magnolias is their raw, untempered
sound. Listening to “Dime Store
Dream" will leave the listener hun
gry for more.
Let this be a warning: Don’t listen
to The Magnolias’ “Dime Store
Dream” if you don’t waht to rock.
uonnnued from Page 9
On “Things I Need,” the band
strays from its usual sound, while the
vocalist breaks into a voice-enhanced
rap, which makes no sense but sounds
really neat.
Overall, “Sell Me A God” is a
thoroughly enjoyable and creative
album. It has the ability to cater to the
musical tastes of almost anyone.
