Editorial Reviews

Ace Young - American Idol Finalist / Recording Artist

"The hottest band out of Rochester about to be embraced by the world." (2008)

Product Description

Modern Rock fans will immediately want to check out the opening track Shine On, which has been described as The Foo Fighters meet Matchbox Twenty, be sure to also check out the Beach Boys influenced backing vocal arrangement and sick guitar solo. Any Sound keeps the intensity rolling with its pulsating melodic rock, reminiscent of Daughtry.

Breaking up has never sounded so vividly painful...or catchy as on the piano-driven, bluesy-pop ballad, If I Can't, while the John Mayer influenced album closer, Second Chance, takes the story one step further when you find someone who has...everything.

Fans of The Goo Goo Dolls, Snow Patrol, and The Gin Blossoms will gravitate to the upbeat Rock/Pop of So Blind and Place.

Anyone who listens to track five will be able to relate to their own, Stephanie, in this energetic, upbeat rocker. Beware...this song contains an unexpected closing blast of Prog/Metal/Fusion!

Check your volume level for the high-intensity tune, Ten Steps, as the haunting bass and vocal intro gives way to crunchy guitars chugging underneath soaring vocals.

Song four will make you think Bread never rocked this hard in the `70s with their classic song, Everything I Own.

Recommended for fans of: Daughtry, Rob Thomas/Matchbox Twenty, Snow Patrol, Foo Fighters, Live, Goo Goo Dolls, and Gin Blossoms.

By	NancyB "Nancy" (Upstate NY) - See all my reviews

Uncle Plum is a great band that is worthy of national recognition. If you like groups like the Gin Blossoms, Maroon 5, Better Than Ezra, etc. then this CD is for you!!

All the songs are great with a good range of style. "Stephanie" is a fun, high energy song while "If I can't" is a bittersweet melody.

Buy it and enjoy!!

This review is from: Shine On (MP3 Download)

" He couldn't take back the words he'd said- she'd still be gone.....First let me begin by saying that "So Blind" is the definite hit on this CD and my alltime favorite- believe me you will all relate to this song. I have had the privilege of getting to know the band over the last two years and have great respect for them personally and as musicians. This cd has the number one spot in my 6 disc car stereo and it is funny when the neighborhood kids jump in my car and ask to hear that cd of the band you love Mrs. Rossi!!!

Uncle Plum is one of those bands that continues to make me "feel like I'm sixteen years again!" From the lyrics of every song to the passion you hear from the talent of all four musicians. Uncle Plum is sure to fit into anyone's everyday life.

Just buy two copies as I'm positive that many friend's will ask for a copy. They also make a great gift ;-)

I have been blessed to meet you all and see this band several times. May you always continue to "Shine On!" guys!!

Smiles,
KC
