CHEVELLE
Point #1
$12.88 CD
Chevelle is a beautiful and brutal musical animal.
The three-piece band is as adept at creating a
gorgeous flowing moment as they are of kicking in
a dead-bolted door. The band's debut album
showcases the dynamic rhythms and melodies of
the Chicago-based band. Relying on riffs, rhythms
and melody, Point #1 takes listeners on a ride that
leaves them frantic, fanatic and begging for air.
SIMON JOYNER
The Lousy Dance

Simon Joyner is a rare singer/songwriter able to
pen highly literate, emotionally resonate songs
without a hint of affectation or overplayed
earnestness. (Colin Helms) Joyner's 6th full-length
recording, is arguably his most cohesive and
focused effort to date. The band is sparse and
stark, and one hears additional influences of early
Randy Newman, and more.
