Exceptional Lyrics + Great Music = An Awesome CD,
By A Customer
This review is from: Linoleum (Audio CD)
Take one listen to the Crown Jewels' sophomore album and you'll be hooked. The brothers Conte, singer/guitarist Steve and bassist John, know how to deliver a great album. Early '90s rock fans may remember the Conte boys from the New York City-based Company of Wolves - originally signed to Mercury Records. After the group split, the Contes formed Crown Jewels and released the debut album, "Spitshine," a few years back (check it out). However, their new Linoleum CD is well worth the wait! The standout track is "Last Confession," with a rockin' sound and catchy hooks. You'll dig the slow grooves of "Strawberryvelvetfiftycentshoes." And you might relate to loving the "Toughest Girl in the Neighborhood." If you think the songs sound awesome on CD, they sound even better played live. Pick up a copy of Linoleum and see the Jewels perform when they come to your town!

Pure Poetry,
By KuroNekoSunako "Anime OST Rocker" (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Linoleum (Audio CD)
I first discovered the Contes while searching for music from Cowboy Bebop (Steve collaborated with Yoko Kanno quite a bit), and after the first listen, I was totally drawn in.
The standout tracks, to me, are "Believe Me Camille", "Last Confession", and "Heart-Shaped Glasses". Each showcases a very different set of emotions, and Steve's voice is delightfully suited to slow songs as well as rocking out. "Heart-Shaped Glasses" has an especially groovin' bass line and beautiful lyrics. Steve is currently working with the reformed New York Dolls, but this CD is some of his finest work.
