Free Music Notes for Out Here All Night
Free Music Review: GIMMICKY?? Not on your life!!! POWERPOP??? Hell yeah!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Having lived with this record for weeks now, I can now say it's a contender for best album of 2006, it's that good.
Think of Damone as a female fronted riffy powerpop band with 80s metal influences instead of Beatles/60s British Invasion ones. Like the Wildhearts, Def Leppard, Cheap Trick, Marvelous 3, or even Weezer, but with someone like Skye Sweetnam on lead vocals, and it works, oh hell yeah does it ever work!!!
As grand as their short but sweet 2003 RCA debut "From The Attic" was, as well as dearly departed Dave Pino's songwriting..."Out Here All Night" easily matches it, and maybe in time, will surpass it. As of now, I can say that the production on this record is better, fuller, more live in your face.
Noelle's grown as a singer and guitarist, even as a writer. Looks like she contributed to the writing on all songs, aside from their unironic but affecting cover of Iron Maiden's "Wasted Years", shows how lovely the song actually is. Next thing, on their next album, they should do Judas Priest's "Out In The Cold" acoustically...good idea, right??? Damone'd probably buy it.
All 12 tracks are winners but my faves are probably the incredible "You're The One" and the awesome "On Your Speakers"...that chorus just knocks me dead every time. What I love about Damone is that their sweet powerpop moments are very VERY pop, almost sugary, whilst the riffage can get really heavy, but they don't get in each other's way. Kind of like how on dance/rock band the Bodyrockers, their dance and rock sides don't get ruined, and they could blend equally with club acts as well as punk bands. Same with Damone. Their tunes would fit next to Kelly Clarkson equally as well as melodic metal bands like Judas Priest and powerpoppers Cheap Trick. Damone makes it all work with charm, like it's a day at the park.
I also love how Noelle balances a tough and adrogenous but sexy side like Joan Jett, with a sweet sad melancholia like a great singer/songwriter, and this adds heft to the tunes, which make them more than just a fun catchy rock & roll band. Their songs actually haunt you and Noelle gets under your skin, you feel for her in the sad songs and rock along with her on the loud powerpop ones.
Great stuff all, possibly the best newish band on the planet today...a serious contender, they've got the goods. I can see why Butch Walker's a fan and took them on tour with him a year ago, what a great fit...and live, amazingly, they're even better than on disc!!! Love their poor bands pseudo PSA too, hahaha, they crack me up...
Out Here All Night Poster
If you can imagine Avril Lavigne fronting Mötley Crüe, you have a sense of where Damone is heading--and for listeners who favor melodic, high-revving power-pop, this is a fun, rocking journey worth taking. A youthful quartet out of Boston fronted by its lone female member, 20-year-old singer/guitarist Noelle, Damone burns through the dozen tracks on Out Here All Night (the group's second recording; its first with Mike Woods as guitarist and chief songwriter) at a manic pace. The band's compact songs (all but one clock in under four minutes) bristle with pounding, noisy energy, yet the melodies shine through the wall-of-racket production with a delectable, beguiling charm. Influences are far-ranging: AC/DC, the Go-Go's, the Ramones, the Runaways, Andrew W.K., Poison--even some soaring guitar salvos that bring to mind Queen's Brian May and Boston's Tom Scholz. (Sample, for instance, "Out of My Way.") The tone is forceful, but the mood is party-minded, not menacing. And while you'll find no revelations in the songs' lyrics, Noelle demonstrates a terrific vocal range that allows her to coo as effectively as she hollers (e.g., "You're the One"). Catchy stuff. --Terry WoodAlternative Rock Music CDs
