That's what you call quite a positive album review!

Questionable
Every once in a blue moon there comes a rock and roll band that breathes new life in a music scene that has all become all show and no substance. A band that wears theirs hearts on their sleeves and serves up rock and roll music the way it’s supposed to be served up. Straight from the heart with attitude, passion and energy that is guaranteed to, put it simply, rock your asses off! Ladies and gents let me introduce you to The Gracious Few.

The band is fueled and powered by guitarist Chad Taylor, bassist Patrick Dahlheimer and drummer Chad Gracey from the band Live, along with lead vocalist Kevin Martin and guitarist Sean Hennesy from the band Candlebox.

What these “Gracious Few” have created is an rock and roll album that is destined to be a classic. Good music is hard to come across and these gentlemen hit the nail on the head. With an influences that range from Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Black Sabbath and the Rolling Stones, it’s hard to go wrong. As is evident on tracks like, “Appetite” loaded with its Led Zep vibe that would make John Bonham proud. Then there is the lead off single, “Honest Man”, a song dedicated to all the hard working people of the world. While tracks like, “What’s Wrong” and “Crying Time”, show that even when the boys downshift they still can make the hair on your arms stand up. Honestly, there is something for everyone. Rock out with your parents, your younger siblings, and, hell, try it on your aunts, uncles, grandparents! This debut outing by The Gracious Few should be, wait, will be, owned by every rock fan in the world. Its great guitar riffs, amazing vocalist, and rock on attitude will inspire millions. Are you ready?!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Alright, I posted some links to TGF as new music to check out on another board that has nothing to do with music to get some unbiased feedback on the sound. These responses are completely unconnected to the band and the past of it. Here are the responses, exactly as they appear (nothing was left out):

"they are pretty good."

"We have a music thread? Band's good, deffinetly adding them to my list on Pandora."

"Not too bad at all"

"Nice. I'm always looking for news bands to listen to... "


I then posted this review:

Here are the responses that followed:

"Its a bit much saying that all the rock fans in the world will by their album. I mean they are good, but by no means that good at least IMO. "

"Yeah I'm gonna have to agree with **** on that. It's a nice review and they have some good influences it seems like, but they'd still have a long ways to go before being THAT big to where every rock fan owns their album. When it comes out, i'll definitely look into more of their songs though.."


There it is, unbiased and unconnected thoughts on the music. I will not be doing this for Ed because honestly I would be embarrased to do so on this board and I'm sure I'd catch flac for it. I like his album but I'm not going to ask other people to listen to it.

Why does it matter? Hoodie don't bother telling him cos he's either just gonna go and talk down TGF and talk up Ed, or just promote Ed to spite the fact you promoted TGF.
