This review is from: Jailhouse a Kingdom (Audio CD)
On A Jailhouse...A Kingdom, the the first track--"Dark Hushes Light"--captures the ear. Haunting and slightly chilling, it's the type of song one would expect to hear at a filled Bowery Ballroom. The country tinge in "That City" leads the song. To me, it detracts from the song. It's slightly jarring put in place next to the first song. The albums standout track--"Drunkest Hour"--is a rocking, guitar driven song that gets you on your feet--perfect for the early morning preparation ritual. The only track that I wasn't a fan of would be "Virgin Wind." While it fits nicely into the album as a whole, the song itself isn't as enjoyable as the first thirty seconds leads one to think. All together, the album stands as hope for a rising young artist that may someday fall on the radar.
