  • Week #9 Freeland -  Cope Selected by Marcus Overall Score: 6.4 ______________________________________________________________________________ Marcus’s Review: Creativity/Artistry: 7Talent/Instrument Skill: 8Structure/ Composition: 7Replayability: 8Growth/ Maturity: 4 Average: 6.8 Comment: Good Stuff. Not a lot to say. Love the Rock On cover. Makes me think of Dream a Little Dream. Great to work or workout to. It’s kind of all over the place. Make sense considering: Tommy Lee of Motley Crue played drums, Alex Metric co-produced it, Twiggy Ramirez plays bass. Joey Santiago of the Pixies and Tony Bevilacqua of Distillers/Spinerette play guitar. Plus there is a collaboration with Soundpool, Vocals from Brody Dalle (Distillers Spinerette) and Gerry from DEVO. Freeland’s new frontman Kurt Baumann also sings on four songs. Worth a try. Some of you may like this more than others and possibly, me. Best Songs: “Strange Things” & “Mancry” ______________________________________________________________________________ Jason’s Review: Creativity/Artistry: 6Talent/Instrument Skill: 7Structure/ Composition: 7Replayability: 5Growth/ Maturity: 4 Average: 6 Comment: I’m not really feeling this. It’s neither good, nor bad. FOr the most part, the beats aren’t that inspiring, rather lackluster. The high points are the songs featuring female vocalists. This would have been awesome had it been released 10 or more years ago. It’s a rather average record as it stands today. Best Songs: “Borderline”, “Silently Speaking”, “Wish I Was Here” ________________________________________________________________________________ EDIT THIS POST TO ADD YOUR REVIEW BELOW.
