SON OF THE SUN
JUNE 22, 2010
FOLLOWING THE SLOW START OF SON OF THE SUN'S EP BEFORE THE AFTER, IT IS A REFRESHING TO HEAR THE BUGS WORKED OUT AND A CONGLOMERATE EFFORT REVEALED ON THIS 12-TRACK RELEASE. "GOOD OLE DAYS" AND "THE OTHER SIDE" ARE A GREAT BACK TO BACK BEGINNING TO THIS FULL LENGTH PIECE OF WORK. THE BAND MUST FEEL COMPLETELY ENAMORED WITH "HOW CAN IT BE?" AS THEY HAVE YET PLACED IN ON ANOTHER RELEASE. THE BAND SEEMS MORE IN TUNE WITH EACH OTHER ON THIS VERSION, AND A LITTLE STUDIO TAMPERING HAS BROUGHT IT UP A NOTCH.
"GET TOGETHER" WILL TRANSFER TO THE STAGE IN A BIG WAY. THE GUITARS ARE VERY UPBEAT AND ALLOW FOR THE BAND TO IMPROVISE FOR THE AUDIENCE. DROPPING THIS TRACK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CD CAN WORK JUST AS WELL IN THE MIDDLE OF A LIVE PERFORMANCE. GETTING THE FANS INVOLVED EARLY AND GIVING THEM A BIT OF AN INJECTION HALFWAY THROUGH ONLY ENCOURAGES THEM TO WANT MORE. THIS IS A FULL MUSICAL EFFORT FROM A LOCAL BUFFALO BAND THAT CAN TAKE A BREATH BEFORE WORKING THEIR STAGE PRESENCE. MOST BANDS CAN NOT BRING IT BOTH THE STUDIO AND THE STAGE, BUT THE MORE YOU LISTEN TO THIS CD A VISION OF WHAT THEY CAN DO LEAPS TO MIND. PLUG THEM IN, TURN DOWN THE HOUSE LIGHTS, AND SPOTLIGHT A BAND WITH UNLIMITED POTENTIAL.
