Hot does. They are some intensely talented people! Thank you again :) 609090@blogcritics.org Mon, 9 Jul 2007 05:15:32 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/05/17/202455.php#comment-595257 Thanks for the review of the Marillion album. I enjoyed their 80's stuff with Fish as lead singer but hadn't realised how good their post-Fish period was until I got their Best Of... a year or two ago. Must confess, though I understand why folks like Rush's music, I just can't stand Lee's vocals alas. 595257@blogcritics.org Sat, 26 May 2007 23:21:20 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/05/17/202455.php#comment-593463 not liking rush's snakes and arrows. sorry... just sounds like a rehash of album fillers, no inspired chops or passion. listened to tracks by elis, legendheart, and marillion, all three are very good. metal lost a great voice in Sabine, the album is powerful. i agree the production could have been better for the legendheart band cd, but the band and the songs are exceptional, hope to hear much more from them. marillion does come across on the softer side of things on somewhere else, but it's actually a pretty cool alternative. all the tracks on here are 1st rate! 593463@blogcritics.org Tue, 22 May 2007 20:12:17 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/05/17/202455.php#comment-592946 Rush/Battlemore/Legend Heart/Chasing Victory. My comments as a listener: Rush: Not as good as Rush of old, but still good. Battlemore: Very impressed with the sound, and the lead vocalist especially. Legend Heart: A hell of a lot more than pub rock, and in some ways, very unique. Excellent. Chasing Victory: I enjoyed hearing this band, It gave me the feel of some early alternative I really loved, with just enough modern flair to make it a winner 592946@blogcritics.org Mon, 21 May 2007 18:42:54 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/05/17/202455.php#comment-592894 I think what IS unique about Legend Heart, is that they are creating original music inspired from times when music was special and real. I also have to say that myself and many of my college mates think their music is VERY unique, and original. I think they are a cool change in an industry of massive amounts of commercial dung. Basically I think they are very talented people. 592894@blogcritics.org Mon, 21 May 2007 16:20:58 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2007/05/17/202455.php#comment-591583 Cool blog!
