GEMMA RAY -IT'S A SHAME ABOUT GEMMA RAY. (BRONZERAT) as reviewed by mr. esq. this is a collection of covers recorded over 5 days. (i can't believe 'lights out zoltar' hasn't been reviewed/played yet! don't worry: mr. esq.'s on the case/review/gonna-play-the-fuck-out-of-it.) covers a wide range of folks: mudhoney, sonic youth, gun club, ella fitzgerald, etta james, and many, many more. songs start to sound the same, but it's still good. heavy cave/gun club influence. can really hear vocals ala chan, donnelly. very gothic/noir. highly recommended. FCC CLEAN. SUGGESTIONS: 2, 3, 5, 9, 11, 16. (esp. 5&9&16) 1. slidey git. sounds like chan, but more range. very country. *2. lushy begin. rocking. *3. back to country. haunty. belly vox. sudden end. 4. keep with the haunty. somber, bassy git. *5. a druggy country reworking=better than the original! 6. straight country. sweet. 7. ominous&ominousity. 8. this gets the rolly waves treatment. *9. BEST SONG: better than the original(s). sad and beautiful. 10. latiny. really cat powery. 11. breathy. in/out vox effect. telephone? or corpse floating on the water? 12. now the cave/waits influ. is strong. 13. this is a nice respite from the rest: it's the most poppy. 14. sad, epic sounding. 15. slide distortion. this one's very soulful. *16. ALMOST BEST SONG: this is just beautiful. | ||
