Super So far // Blessing of the curse
I've been thinking about how to start this album review for days. The word amazing doesn't seem to cover it. Breathtaking also fell short so if that is any indication, you know what I mean. Occasionally I find an album that doesn't leave my cd player for days, usually these instances are few and far between. Blessing of the Curse has been happily nestled in the cd player in my car for four days now. From the soulful sounds of Ocean Breathe to the upbeat Mind your Manners this band has hit the nail on the head. Lead singer James Woods generally describes the bands sound as rock, although this album proves that there is something more there. Piano and acoustic guitar help to bring the lyrics to life, the tunes are so catchy that you will have a hard time getting them out of your head. This five song EP is a great teaser for the sound of this all around talented group of musicians. Currently you can pick up a copy of Blessing of the Curse at any one of the shows that they will be playing in the near future. For those of you that are outside Salt Lake keep an eye on www.supersofar.com, the album will be available there shortly.
