Black Country Communion: Saviors of Rock?

[LMD]

I suspect you might not like this, but give it a try - long piece and develops quite nicely - quality isn't great but what the hell it's free.

Hey, I found the post that originally turned me onto Camel from Jerome. I know you/he were/was looking for it too.

Anyway, I like BCC but I don't think I'd call them saviors of rock for 2 main reasons.
1. I found their debut to be a good album but nothing great. There were some great songs but some duds as well I thought. BCC 2 was a great album though and by far my favorite of the year. I'm excited about a 3rd from them. They just need more Bonamassa vocal-led tracks... Hughes is too overbearing. As much as I like them, its hard to listen to them too often in one sitting. But that's just my opinion, of course.
2. The second reason I won't call them saviors is that rock is still flourishing. The underground rock scene is great and there have been some seriously great albums and bands working it for a while. There's nothing to save. Unless BCC became super mainstream and brought un-autotuned rock back to the mainstream, which they don't seem to be doing. :\

All in all though, a great band. Good to see them getting some due somewhere after everyone I've met slept on "2" this past year.
