It's some dark hard hitting beats with some real lyrics.  Not allot of features but I appreciate the ones that he did get. Underground hero Lord Lhus and Savage Brothers, Peep sho which anyone who follow Canadian hip hop remembers. Juggalo J Reno and all were incredible. Seem some growth from the last release from Jakob22 making it more accessible and trying more sounds.   Can't wait to see the videos</description>

You might not understand the attitude. The plaid shirts, the sunglasses, the ripped jeans and the sarcasm. You might not understand the message. What you should all understand after listening to this band is that they are incredible. The music, the lyrics, the production, etc. This band is one of the few reasons left to listen to independent music. The debut album "A Generation In A Jar" is a collection of 22 basement recordings all of which have single potential. So what should you understand? "The Lips" are slowly emerging to the top.</description>

	 <title>Six Storeys High by Six Storeys High</title>
	 <link>http://www.soundsnob.net/site/sound.snob/reviews/reviews/viewReview/?review_id=61&amp;from=rss</link>
	 <description>&lt;img src="http://soundsnob.net/site/sound.snob/reviews/reviews/viewAlbumArt/?album_id=55&amp;size=55" style="border: 1px solid #000000;float:left;" align="left" /&gt;Six Storeys High have probably never been compared to Jonas Brothers before, but like the pin-ups of American Pop who spawned a million Camp Rock dolls, the single taken off their respective UK debuts ("Emergency Call" vs. "SOS") makes a Mayday reference.  On the evidence of this self-titled EP it is hard to imagine Six Storeys High getting into troubled waters.

Opening track "Emergency Call" crashes in, grabs the listener by the scruff of the throat and refuses to let go. The next track "Slide Away" with its huge sing-along chorus showcases the teenagers at their best; it has the hooks to hang your hat on while managing to put you through the emotional mincer.  Lead singer Stephen Gray even has shades of Rick Witter about him (does anyone remember Shed Seven?) but on the rest of the tracks he manages to sound refreshingly original. "Five Times Better" is in a similar vein, only even better - the sort of song you can imagine playing incredibly loud while driving very fast. The lyrics typify the band's preoccupation with teenage angst, describing the reasons for dumping a girlfriend (because her friend is "more pleasing on the eye or the fact that you don't dress so well").  "In My Sight" is another fine addition to the Six Storeys High canon.

Overall the result is an uplifting debut that would sound equally at home in a swaying stadium or a lovelorn teenager's bedroom. My guess is that Six Storeys High won't be making a cameo appearance on Hannah Montana any time soon, but I have to say that that is probably Miley Cyrus' loss.</description>

	 <title>Between The Lines by Jason Achilles Mezilis</title>
	 <link>http://www.soundsnob.net/site/sound.snob/reviews/reviews/viewReview/?review_id=59&amp;from=rss</link>
	 <description>&lt;img src="http://soundsnob.net/site/sound.snob/reviews/reviews/viewAlbumArt/?album_id=53&amp;size=55" style="border: 1px solid #000000;float:left;" align="left" /&gt;I came across this album recently while searching for a new release from bi-coastal prog-rockers OWL: apparently their guitarist has a new solo EP out, thought I'd pick up a copy on iTunes and give a listen as I'd been reading it was (mostly) all cover tunes...didn't know what to expect?

Well, I'll say this _ contrary to his band OWL, there is absolutely NOTHING metal about this record, and that's a good thing.  I have read somewhere since that Jason actually refers to his sound as "dirt rock".  The EP leads in with a PJ Harvey tune (one of my favorites, a tune called "One Line" from "Stories From The City..."), and is immediately given a raw and dirty drum-heavy treatment that sounds fantastic despite the quite prominent tape-hiss.  Yes tape hiss...as in this was all recorded on tape (as I later discovered) at the guitarist's private all-analog studio.  Jason does not partake in the vocal duties on this album, but rather (wisely I would imagine) sitting on backing vocals and leaving that prominent task to, as he puts it, "close friends and lovers" that do the job admirably.  Darin Bennett is a searing vocalist, hearty with decades of swamp blues gravel, and Arrica Rose (presumably the lover, current or ex) is a fine balance on their clever take of "California Dreamin'", with a soft, almost airy sounding approach that contrasts Darin's pastor-preaching grit.

Far as the music itself, Jason is clearly showing off a bit in the prog musicality sense, as I have seldom heard as many convolutions of rhythm and meter as are evident in his take on "That's All Right, Mama".  But again, it's cleverly done, and just when it gets to the point where your head is about to hurt, they settle into a nice 4 groove that brings it all on home.  It's my understanding that this piece (and in fact most the record) was recorded live, or various stages thereof, quite a testament to the musicianship involved.


All in all a worthy effort, and some very cool takes (and choices) on older material.  9 out of 10, and only down a point because I want to hear what this talented artist can do with a record of original solo releases.  The one self-composed track on the record, an acoustic instrumental guitar piece entitled "Jerry's Song", is by far the loveliest 2 minutes of music on here, and leaves the ear wanting more of that originality.  Hopefully we won't be kept waiting too long...</description>

The five track EP was recorded at Fudge Recording Studio in New Orleans, Louisiana. Nick recorded the album with producers, Jack Miele (The Molly Ringwalds) and Jacques Delatour. The album carries emotion far beyond his years. In “How it Feels (to lose a friend)”, Nick tells what it’s like to lose a friend to suicide. “Breaking the Heart in” delves into the lack of understanding he has for love. In “That Life”, he explains how he will not conform into society’s flaws. The EP is the 3rd album he has released during high school years and is a turning point in his career.</description>
