"...while Picture Atlantic’s influences clearly lie in the British Isles, they avoid the trap of sounding like a Coldplay (or Keane, or Travis) cover act.Soaring melodies and euphoric riffs aplenty, but Picture Atlantic stakes their own claim."- Afreeman.org
"As the album came to an end, I couldn’t help but feel complete serenity. The combination of powerful rock anthems, piano ballads, and emotional lyrical melodies, created a demeanor of tranquility and peace for me. These guys have something unique and special about them as a band, their sound, and the way they combine the two. It’s a quality only found in driven individuals, and a trait only held by difference bands.But, I like that PA is a band who plays what they like, yet still create a universal sound in their own way. Not conforming to any musical status-quo, Picture Atlantic provides listeners with music that’s fresh, a bit different, and obtains a whole lot of style."

Ending In E was formed in early 2006 and consists of band members Anthony Guarente (Vocals), Anthony Luciano (Guitar/Vocals), Steve Salvatore (Guitar/Vocals), Steve Millet (Bass), and Rob Salvatore (Drums). Hailing from the New York City area, Ending In E is quickly establishing themselves among the local scene. The band recorded and released their first EP, “What You Want,” in the early parts of 2007. After much anticipation, the band re-entered the studio in April 2008 to begin production on their first full-length album, “The Morning Of.” Ending In E released the album in March 2009. With a powerful blend of Pop-Punk and straight up Rock & Roll, the band is hoping to break out of the local scene and begin expanding their fan-base beyond the city limits.

Oi Va Voi - Travelling the Face of the Globe







乐队名称:Oi Va Voi
专辑名称:Travelling the Face of the Globe
公司厂牌:Oi Va Voi Recordings
风格类型:Alternative

官方网站:www.oi-va-voi.com

Oi Va Voi’s third album ‘Travelling the Face of the Globe’ is the sound of a band absolutely at the top of their game. All the elements that the band has developed over the past five years are realised with new found confidence and independence. The band have returned to their roots, taken control of every aspect of their career and reunited with the Grammy award winning producers of “Laughter Through Tears”, Kevin Bacon and Jonathan Quarmby.

“Travelling The Face of the Globe” opens beautifully with the melancholic yet uplifting ‘Waiting’. Second song; ‘I Know What You Are’, showcases the wonderful, smoky vocals of lead vocalist Bridgette Amofah:“I look up at the sun rising, I know what you are”.
The album unfolds gradually as Steve Levi’s haunting vocal juxtaposes with violinist Anna Phoebe’s soaring violin work beautifully. Here is a band that is completely at ease with themselves and their position in the world of music.

In Amofah Oi Va Voi have found a singer that can use the power of her voice to dramatic effect and yet still remain vulnerable. Elements of Nina Simone and Shirley Bassey combine with a contemporary urban approach to create a sound all her own with the ability to touch and disarm.
On more up tempo songs such as the title track “Travelling The Face Of The Globe” and “Long Way from Home” trumpet player Dave Orchant and Levi play fiery klezmer/gypsy/Balkan lines while Amofah’s vocal and fly on top of the engine of the band’s driving rhythms – Josh Breslaw (drums) and Lucy Shaw’s (bass).

Nik Ammar’s beautiful picking guitar lines on Foggy day echo those found on songs like “7 Brothers” and “Ladino Song” from the “Laughter Through Tears” album.

In true Oi Va Voi tradition the new album also features wonderful guest vocal contributions. Agi Szaloki, who sang the haunting “Dissident” on the group’s second album; “Oi Va Voi” returns to feature on the Yiddish song “S’brent”. Inspired by the folk song of the late 1930s and 40s, “S’brent” tells of the horrors of a burning town whilst elders look on. Szaloki’s Yiddish vocals with their spine-chilling filmic quality drift across the Voi’s beautiful musical canvas.

Oi Va Voi have always been prepared to take risks and rip up the rule book. Legendary French singer Dick Rivers closes the album with the anthemic “Photograph”. His deep, world weary vocal resonates as he plays the part of Emile Zola reminiscing on his struggle to tell the truth of events during the Dreyfus affair 19th century in France.

In “Travelling the Face of the Globe”, Oi Va Voi have finally distilled the lives and influences of 7 Londoners. The band have melted the music of their heritage with the sounds of contemporary London and created songs that will touch and inspire.

"“I started an album 8 or 9 years ago down in New Orleans, but never quite finished it. I got derailed by the various etceteras of life. Then, sometime in 2007, a friend who’d been a label executive called and said he’d been listening to tapes of the New Orleans’ sessions and wanted to release them. I was flattered, but it felt like old news. I got together with my friends from the band Ollabelle, and a sound started to take shape. I hadn’t been writing much, but new songs kept appearing, I’d stretch out my hand and they’d pull over, like a taxi. Once we got into the studio, we recorded as live as possible, just kept everything tied to the story and the feeling.”—Brian Cullman“….Quietly devastating. Like Leonard Cohen backed by Garth Hudsonand The Band.” Soundfile (UK)

“Brian Cullman is that rarest of singer-song-writer-instrumentalist-composers - an artist whose intelligence doesn't overwhelm his humanity; an artist whose sensitivity doesn't undercut the fierce mind at work. Cullmanknows the star stuff that we're made of; our nobility, and our treachery, the way we deceive ourselves -- how our greatest loves go unrequited, the funny way our tears turn into laughter -- and back again.” —Vernon Reid"
