Biography

There are a handful of artists that honestly and truly know what it means to sing from the heart and from the soul. Whether or not these artists sing about unrequited love, raise their fists against injustice, or expose our innermost fears and desires like a raw nerve, there’s a fire in their soul, a bitter tasting spit salivating from their lips, and a magnetic force in their grip.

4.0 out of 5 stars sampler, March 1, 2006
This review is from: Megan McCauley Sampler (Audio CD)
Megan McCauley has a strong individual sound in her voice. Her music is a different but beautiful combination, kinda like Michelle Branch meets Avril Lavigne. Her sampler only has a few songs on it but most of her music you've probably already heard because she's already been on several soundtracks ex. fantastic four and Elektra. If you want a few more good songs to listen to I suggest getting this album sampler.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Promising Introduction for a Good Artist, April 17, 2008
This review is from: Megan McCauley Sampler (Audio CD)
I, like most, was first introduced to Megan McCauley through the Elektra and Fantastic Four soundtracks. I was blown away by the raw feeling her vocals produced. Megan McCauley is like a mix between Hole and Evanescence, a rocker and a talented singer that does not fall into the Avril Lavigne pop/rock kingdom.

When her sampler was released, I was very excited, but I did wait until I found it for only $9 to buy it (however much I may like her, I will not spend $70 on a four track CD (as a reviewer before me pointed out)). I was not disappointed with what I found.

"Die for You" was featured on the Fantastic Four soundtrack, and is a wonderful introductory showcase of McCauley's vocal range and darker rock stylings as she vents the frustrations of her love. This moves into the harsh and also dark "I'll Pay You to Shoot Him," which is a raw autobiographical track about her relationship with her father. There is something inescapably creepy about a young woman singing almost cheerfully about offering a police officer money to "blow his brains out."

Next is "Fragile," a harsh and sarcastic rocker that reveals a more sensitive side of McCauley, yet somehow retaining the caustic toughness that sets her apart in her debut EP. It finishes with "Wonder," the acoustic/rock ballad from the Elektra soundtrack. With deeper lyrics ("When bleeding is feeling and feeling ain't real/Will I see when I open my eyes?" she laments) and a catchy tune, "Wonder" is a showcase of McCauley's talents as a songwriter (she wrote this when she was 14) and a soaring vocalist.

If you enjoy rock music that throws back to when you had to be a talented singer to get into the business instead of sex symbol with poppy blonde hair, you will love Megan McCauley. She is a promising new artist who is sure to go on to great places. And if you ever get the chance to purchase this for a reasonable price, you will not be disappointed.
