skullguise Posted Wednesday at 04:02 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 04:02 PM (edited) Belinda Carlisle - Once Upon A Time In California. Chose it for a great song selection of covers. And....she managed to destroy just about every one.....she manages to sing with fairly good inflection, but ALSO somehow manages to suck the life out of every song on the album. Arrangements and such are so-so, sometimes pretty bad. Or maybe it's just me 🤣 EDIT: wasn't even through with the whole album, and got to a cover of Nilsson's Everybody's Talkin' and it is just fucking horrible! Edited Wednesday at 04:14 PM by skullguise It's even worse than I thought! FFS..... 1 Quote

mikeymad Posted Wednesday at 08:25 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 08:25 PM What a jam - Video quality not the best, but sound quality is good. And three percussionists is what we all need. Highlight is also the keyboard player. 2 1 Quote
skullguise Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago New Chameleons, Arctic Moon. Some similarity to their older work, but much is new and different. Lyrically I love it, and the music fits each song. Lead singer Vox (used to be Mark Burgess) puts some soul and emotion into the words, representing relationships, new-found love but also the scary nature of the modern world (last song for example is called Saviors Are A Dangerous Thing). But it's certainly an acquired taste. I'm loving it so far..... 2 Quote
