4.0 excellent
Adelitas Way Home School Valedictorian
I really appreciate the feeling they put into most of their songs.
Like A Storm The End of the Beginning
Very good first time effort. Solid rock sound, interesting use of subtle violins and adult chorus in a couple of the cuts. Lyrically very solid. Lot of emotion exhibited. Pretty decent variety in their sound.
Redlight King Irons in the Fire
Love this album. Much rockier than their first album with much more emphasis on their
instrumentation. Main theme throughout the album is that life is tough, nothing is free, so
what are you going to do about it? The rock/rap of his first album is not nearly as
prevalent on this album (love their first album, just saying) and this album is not as
personal a reflection on his own life as life in general. All of his songs have meaning and
you want to listen to his words as opposed to so many other albums where the lyrics aren't
important. Each song is different from the others, yet has a smoothness about it that does not make it disjointed. Hope their third album blends both of their first two albums together.

3.5 great

Love this, especially lyrically, but perhaps a little more variety is needed on the overall sound.

3.0 good

Ed Kowalczyk Alive
Every song is religious in nature. Not that that is bad, only wish he used a little more variety with his lyrics.

2.5 average
Black Stone Cherry Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea
Has some good stuff on it, but I don't see a lot of progression on this one. John Young's
drumming is less aggressive.
Black Stone Cherry Magic Mountain
Definitely expected more out of them. They sound tired or something.
