Free Music Notes for CivilianFree Music Review: This Album was So moving Hit: 5 Stars
After listing to Civilian a few times I realized how strong the music and the lyrics really were. He brings rock music to a whole new level. When you have all those pop tarts lip synching and having their voices alerted in the studio to sound like what you here on their CD's and aging rock stars still trying to come up with new material - or constantly reviving themselves through tours of their "classic hits" -- Adam Pascal's voice is real, strong and definitely his. I think Adam is a new face of rock and roll. Someone who is fresh, mature, evolved and definitely on the rise. This CD is a cool, hip experience that everyone will enjoy and you will not have had to see him on Broadway to love what this CD has to say.
Free Music Review: VERY unique. Hit: 5 Stars
I thought that this album was very good. One: It's unique. This album is rock, yet not like the rock you think of normally. The way he made the music was brilliant, its like he made a whole new genre. Two: The lyrics are very touching, and written so well. Three: He can sing VERY well! On a couple of tracks he sang very high notes and achieved them. Just because he is not a "popular" singer, doesnt mean he isnt good. I think he's actually VERY talented. Thats what makes this album so good, is that it sets him aside from about 99% of artists in America these days, not to mention names. Finally not the normal rock that we listen to, but a whole new sound. Everyone should atleast give this album a chance.
Free Music Review: Rock with Resonance Hit: 5 Stars
You're going to be blown away. "Civilian" is a great mix of uptempo songs and ballads, some nice bluesy tunes like "The Ringing in My Ears" and really strong, interesting lyrics. The poetic phrasing in "Something of Ours" is particularly haunting.
Pascal's influences are pretty clear here in the melodies-- rock pioneers of the late sixties and early seventies will hear their impact on this disc. However, the lyrics are unique and original.
Oh, and by the way, if you weren't aware of it already, this guy has a voice that can reach down into your soul and rip your guts. Absolutely fantastic vocals.
Well worth the money-- I've become hooked on this CD!
Free Music Review: Diversity from the Broadway Rock Star Hit: 5 Stars
Adam Pascal, notorious for "One Song Glory" or "Elaborate Lives", is definately underrated. It is always nice to see a true and multifaceted musician create a successful work. Although I have loved him since RENT, I think this cd is better than (different than) MODEL PRISONER, as his voice has grown and life experience is reflected in his songwriting. Plus, as a Tony nominated actor, he is an excellent live performer. He is a refreshing change from other pop or rock stars, who have only been groomed by the likes of reality tv or MTV. His songwriting is true poetry. I loved this one!
Free Music Review: Even Better Than the First Album Hit: 5 Stars
With his second album "Civilian," Adam Pascal demonstrates his talent as a writer of rock ballads (many touch on political themes, while others are anthems to his children) and as a singer with a powerful rock voice that theater fans will recognize from Rent and Aida. "Beautiful Song" and "Book of Endings" are my favorites, but the whole album is a great purchase for fans of rock musicals or rock music in general.
