Free Music Review: This is how a band should "Sell Out"
Hit: 5 Stars
I grew up in the late 80's east coast hard core scene so I understand AM!'s raw punk folk roots and appreciate it for what it was. However at some point we all grow up and AM! has done so better than any band I can remember in the last 20 years. The message may have changed, but don't overlook the fact that there still is one.
This album is just one great song after another. And if you listen to more than Teenage Anarchist then you can pick up on some of the earlier folk influences on songs like Ache with Me and Bamboo Bones (if you spring for the deluxe - Bod Dylan Dream and Lehigh Acres) while songs like High Pressure Low and Rapid Decompression pay homage to the good old days of punk while the rest of the songs do a good job of blending old influences into catchy and polished tunes with an almost unmatched replayability. Even the baladesque We're Breaking Up and Because of the Shame have enough of an edginess to them and keep them from sounding tired.
I highly recommend the deluxe version. The 4 added songs are well worth the cost.
White Crosses Poster
'White Crosses' is as powerful and as bold a rock record as one can imagine. The band roars like fighter jets screaming over a stadium on the anthemic title-track (with its shout along line about smashing the 4,000 crosses on a local church's lawn, ones that signify the number of babies aborted each day in the U.S.). Joining that is the escapist fury of 'Spanish Moss,' and the short stick of dynamite, 'Rapid Decompression.' 'New Wave' eschewed some of the roughness of the band's earlier efforts, but 'White Crosses' goes even further in filling out the band's wallop. With its twinkling piano and a glorious whoa-oa chorus, 'Because Of The Shame' could be an outtake from Bruce Springsteen's classic 'Born To Run.' 'Ache With Me' is a slow-jam that would make Paul Westerberg blush, while 'High Pressure Low' is Billy Idol meets fellow Gainesville native Tom Petty. 'This is my Florida record,' says Gabel. 'I spent a lot of time writing this record while driving directionless on forgotten Florida state roads, highly caffeinated, with albums like [Petty's] 'Full Moon Fever' blasting on my stereo.'Alternative Rock Music CDs
