Add Date: November 3
Artist: Cassavettes
Album: Shake Down the Sun
Label: Self-released
Genre: Rock (alt rock)
Comments: The fourth LP by the Cassavettes, Shake Down the Sun, certainly holds an upbeat and polished sound. The promoter likens the group to Neil Young and Ryan Adams, personally I don't see this. Instead I'd compare Shake Down the Sun to a 90's alt-rock group (Foo Fighters?), or at parts I hear other sorts, like The Walkmen, ringing through. I see the strong holds of the album being the high-energy yet melody-based songs like "Seek Cover" or "Golden Fleece". The promoter also says this is a rock/folk/blues album. I would scrap the last two labels. I don't hear much twang or any blues coming out. Overall, if you're looking for a song to pick up the rhythm of your set I'd start with tracks "Someday Darling"(6), "Seek Cover"(5), and/or "Golden Fleece" (3).
