Each song starts with shouting or screaming at you. So boring. So predictable. Could at least tell they had an accent. Not my cup of tea.
Sorry guys, but this album seemed talentless. Lots of noise and lots of screaming, very little singing, not much in the way of melody. Since it was a free download, I rate this album worth what I paid for it.
The Revere is a power trio from Philadelphia consisting of 22-year-old twin brothers Sean Kelly (guitar, vocals) and Pat Kelly (drums), and 21-year-old Michael Pearson on bass. “The Great City” – a concept album about loyalty, love, finding one’s self, and coming of age in a dream world somewhere between our reality and our wildest imagination. The album was recorded in New York City, and it ROCKS!!!
Tracks 1,2,3 are a noisy mess; it must have been deliberate. But the rest of this album can be enjoyed, and without needlessly analyzing lyrics. Noting that the group has been around for a while, this listener (who feels that “Boston” is the Greatest Band Ever), finds most of the tracks here worthwhile and encourages the sound.
Is there anything more useless than a music review that includes the phrases “shouting or screaming” and “not my cup of tea?” Might as well (figuratively) wave your fist in the air while shouting “Young whippersnappers!” or “Get off my lawn!” It tells the reader nothing about the musicians or their music, but everything about the geezer … um, I mean, the reviewer.
As pointed out by an earlier review, Revere is a Pennsylvania progressive rock band comprised of twins Sean and Patrick Kelly, and Michael Pearson (from Warrington, PA actually), who began their musical collaboration as Concord. “The Great City” is their first full-length offering, which follows previous 4-song and 8-song EPs. Also, as pointed out by earlier reviews, this is a concept album. It follows a distinct story line through each track … a tale of people following an old man on a mystical journey. And, best of all, it is the first half of that effort – a later album will complete the story.
Sean Kelly’s vocals are nuanced and powerful, driving the energy of the hardest rocking tracks (e.g.=”The Old Man and the Inn” or “The Time, The Light, The Heart”), yet retreating to a lilting ballad on “Rest.” For a three-piece band (guitar, bass and drums), these guys really put out the sound!
This album is available exclusively from Amazon – and FREE – on January 19th. If you miss that fantastic deal, don’t despair. This album (and the hoped-for sequel to follow) is worth the asking price. So buy it … you won’t be sorry.
