This Connecticut guy is sure getting some recognition by the media and fellow artists and his sales aren't doing bad either. This is the first full album I have heard. I do give it a thumbs up, but I'm not sure it lives up to the hype. This is his fourth studio effort with some live ones thrown in there. I did see a live concert thing on one of the music channels and the guy is an awesome guitar player. With the blues crowd he's been hanging with, he is picking up some nice experience. I think he's gonna be around awhile. The cover of Claptons Crossroads is a tribute I guess, and he does it justice, but again, stay away from the classics. Who Says must be the single, since I'm seeing it everywhere. Love the message even though it's not my fav.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Assasin
Best Track - Heartbreak Warfare
Lighting strike
Inside my chest to keep me up at night
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain
Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbreak warfare
If you want more love why don't you say so
If you want more love why don't you say so
Drop his name
Push it in and twist the knife again
Watch my face
As I pretend to feel no pain
Clouds of sulfur in the air
Bombs are falling everywhere
It's heartbreak warfare
Once you want it to begin
No one really ever wins
In heartbeak warfare
If you want more love Why don't you say so
If you want more love Why don't you say so
Just say so
How come the only way to know how high you get me
Is to see how far I fall
God only knows how much I'd love you if you'd let me
But I can't break free at all
It's heart, heartbreak
I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight
Let's just just fix this whole thing now
I swear to God we're going to get it right
If you put your weapon down
Red wine and ambien
You're talking shit again.
It's heartbreak warfare
Good to know it's all a game
