I found this band through MySpace(www.myspace.com) from a friend request, and I listened to their music. I never expect much from those bands, but the song "blood on the frets" took me by surprise. It was about a month later when I was desperate to find a form of procrastination, so I ordered their CD through their website not expecting much from them.

By the first song I was hooked. Catchy tunes backing their nearly unsurpassed songwriting ability. With an immense vocabulary, the two man band (Dave and Misha) are able to express their feelings through song lyrics in a way that I've never heard before. It's music that makes you think, and there are so many meanings behind all of their words, that their songs don't get old.

It's also a CD that takes very little "warming up." I put it in, and after the first song I was hooked. You can listen to the CD all the way through without skipping songs (except the last song... I don't really like it), the boys don't waist their words for the sake of making a full length CD. It's clear to see that each song has significant meaning to them.

Musically... It is an acoustic sound somewhat similar to Dispatch. The rhymes (not vocals) and their ability to quickly and meaningfully hit 4-5 rhymes in a row are similar to that of G Love with much more emotion/meaning behind their lyrics. The lead, solos, and instrumental jams are something only of a band that hasn't been tainted by the pop scene yet. It shows two guys that truly appreciate their music and what they make it... not what a producer makes it.

buy this CD, you won't be disappointed.

If you have never heard of this band, you are really missing out. A friend recommended them to me and they have quickly become one of my favorites. They have a catchy yet unique sound, and lyrics that will knock your socks off; most defiantly worth a small investment to make a new musical best friend. Other really good albums are Satisfiction and Dave Lowensohn Dates Your Daughter. Or you can check out some free online music off their website: www.speechwritersllc.com

By the way, I just realized after writing this that I sound like I work for the band...I don't.
Cheers!

ive been listening to these guys since 2001, when satisfiction came out. their lyrical abiltity shocks me, and no matter what mood im in, i can always find a reason to listen to speechwriters. this album opens up with some remakes of some of their earlier projects, and has 4 spankin new tracks. Or Something can bring anyone to their knees wishing for old relationships to come back into their lives and Hostage is a song about not quite getting what, or who, you need. dave signed a copy for me when my cousin went to one of their shows this summer. these guys are hardworking amazing artists, and this album really proves it.

Nice album, from my point of view, the best from Speechwriters LLC. Im my car radio-CD since I bought it. 12 songs, cardboard case and no booklet inside. Several excellent songs: Anodyne, Blood on the frets, Annie Dan, CHBB...Worth the money I payed for it!

I love everything this band stands for. The music is great and well worth my money! Thanks for staying true to music Speechwriters, LLC!

I was first turned to SpeechwritersLLC about 3 years ago by a friend of mine, and I can honestly say they have been my favorite band ever since. I was never a huge fan of folk music, but it has since become my favorite genre, with Speechwriters leading the charge. Lyrically, I have never came across a better band...and their intrumental talents are excelent as well. They truly can be listened to in any mood. "Anodyne," "Hostage," and "Annie Dan" are all easliy within my top 15 favorite songs of all time. If you have not heard Speechwriters' music, and there's a decent chance you haven't, you owe it to yourself to give them a shot...they will not disapoint.

Such a great CD, full of fun pop rock and extremely catchy. They have alot of talent and each song shows their amazing music ability. Wonderful lyrics that never get old. Speechwriters LLC creats music anyone can listen to, relate, and love. I strongly recommend this to anyone and everyone. It is unfortunate that this band isn't more well known because they have the potential to be huge. So if you're like me and you constantly search for new fun music, you wont regret this buy.

When I think of Speechwriters LLC the things that come to mind are their excellent musical ability and great treatment of their fans. Their website has archives of older works and live shows, free to download. These tracks really showcase the hard work they've put into improving their music over the years. I suggest downloading "We Are Selling This CD for Gas Money" if you want a taste of Dave and Misha's style. They also just released a free EP to those on their mailing list, which is great by the way. It has the perfect sound to listen to as 2007 ends.

The Bull Moose After Party is a great album. It's very far outside of the genres I usually listen to, but the poignant lyrics and catchy tunes make it really enjoyable. In fact it's one of my favorite albums, you don't need to be in the "mood" to listen to Speechwriters, just put it in and enjoy.

Give this album a chance; I doubt you'll be disappointed.

A band that not enough people have heard of yet. Great folk rock from California, this third CD is their best yet. Every song is a perfect. The lyrics really blow me away.
