"La Cognizione del Superfluo" by Storming Weather (Alternative artist from Italy)

"La Cognizone del Superfluo" by Storming Weather is a gripping rock album with dark undertones straight from Italy. The band has a thick sound, featuring bluesy guitar riffs and effective vocals that are sometimes weathered and sometimes melodic. The musicianship and recording quality of the CD are excellent. "Errori" has a nice "Epic" quality to it with soft verses that break into hard choruses. "Lo Show" opens with a killer guitar riff and moves forward into a fist pumping rocker with cool changes and a deep sound. "Killer Son" slows things down a bit, as the band shows you its dreamy, airy side. There are some cool changes and rhythms in this one too. If you like Nickelback and Grunge "In Italiano" you will enjoy this CD.

"Raised to the Ground" by Sky Rats (Alternative Artist from United Kingdom)

"Raised to the Ground" by Sky Rats is a grit filled rock album with hints of ska here and there. It features Rob Thomas meets Dave Grohl type vocals, a tight rhythm section and catchy melodies. The songwriting provides relevant lyrics and memorable choruses. This is a radio-ready, totally professional CD, in terms of both the tight sound of this talented band, and the high quality production on the CD. Sky Rats' sound on this CD remind us of the "Mod" bands of the 80's and sound very American for a UK band. Highlights of this album are "Don't Look Now," a big rocker with a driving chorus - a definite pit starter. "Get it All" has a real catchy chorus and is more toward the "Mod" sound, as earlier mentioned. "Out of my Depth" pumps with a cool bass line and sinister vocals. If you like Foo Fighters and Mighty Mighty Bosstones you will enjoy this one.
