Draws you in and really takes off...

Vocals are good. Wow, it really starts jumpin'! Not sure I like the sound of the guitar, even though what is played is great. I'd try paying the same parts with less drive (clearer). The solo reinforces the melody well. It sounds okay distorted. Now that the song has finished I'll say the vocals are great with sort of a Bon Jovi sound to the vocalist. He is enough unique to be a good thing. The intro of the song is cool how it draws you and and takes off.

Slick and Crisp

Good, pure sounding start, then delves into up-tempo pub rock with a groovy guitar hook. Some cool lyrical ideas/metaphors for the genre. The vocalist has a suitable style too, hitting all the right notes and sounding confident, with a good voice too. It's really not my cup of tea at all, though, especially the blistering guitar solo, but I cannot deny that it is well performed and presented and everything sounds slick and crisp.

"Timed guitar solo. Dude, your 23 seconds are up..."

Exactly what is this the alternative to??? It sounds pretty top 40 to me, Dave Matthews or Counting Crows with some balls...Not my thing, but the musicianship is very tight...Singer has great delivery and the bass player was perfectly locked in with the drummer...Maybe a little more on the rhythm guitar, but otherwise good production.

"Get yourself to the frat party post-haste"

Like Hootie and the Blowfish, Blues Traveller, and a myriad of bands before them, this band can have a shelf life of many years if they concentrate on playing college bars and frat parties. The track definitely follows the hook-verse-hook-chorus "cut and paste" aesthetic of John Popper and friends, featuring raw vocals with oodles of emotion, and rhythmic delivery. I was glad I didn't have to sit through a minute-long guitar solo. Good times and good fun isn't a bad thing in moderation. This track can stand with the hundreds of feel-good songs in its class.

"Drivin' down the road"

Nice song in general. I like the lead guitar work. I don't normally like to compare to other bands but my God does your vocalist sound like John Popper of Blues Traveller. Rhythm section was tight. Nice work.

"Radio Ready"

Vocals sound a lot like Counting Crows or Blues Traveller, mainly Blues. Guitarist is great. I like the hook. I'm not waiting either!
