Casablanca review

 

Lead vocalist reminds me a little bit of Davy Vain and it's produced by Chris Laney...what more do you need to know??

Anything that involves Ryan Roxie is worth picking up or checking out.

 

Been waiting a long time for this one.

Can't order it anywhere yet...doesn't get released until March 16th. I do think a lot of folks around here are going to like this album. Chris Laney does an excellent production job as always, and while some of the songs are a little more subdued than I prefer, at least half the CD is made up of great tracks. Personally, I can't stop playing "Deliberately Wasted"; big, fat, sing-along anthem.

Damnit my adobe flash player no longer works even though I have the latest version installed...

Gee im sold on the album cover alone.

Does this sound similar to all the other Laney projects? Hope so.

I gotta say, guys, I was browsing Musicbuymail yesterday and I saw this and thought wtf, why is no one talking about this. I played the 3 samples on the site and I have to admit I was left totally unimpressed. I might try the full thing before writing it off, but it certainly didn't make me want to desperately seek it. The key word in Marks post is "subdued."

Checked out a few tracks off this one after reading some positive reviews. All songs seemed pretty good without being outstanding. The one notable exception is 'Rich Girl', which is one of the best songs I've heard so far this year. Definitely a tune I'll be downloading.
