Conquering the Fear of Flight

Band: Wavorly
Album: Conquering the Fear of Flight
Genre: Rock
Rating: 7/10


I enjoyed Conquering the Fear of Flight by Wavorly. The album has some pretty good tracks on it. One of my favorite tracks in particular was "Madmen." It has a pretty hard, driving tempo, which matches the fast guitar chords. I also liked the track "Praise and Adore (Some Live Without It)" because it was a standout from the rest of the rockish (excluding "Summer Song") album. It actually reminded me, somewhat, of Leeland.


I liked Wavorly's album and thought that it matches up some good guitar riffs with vocals that are almost like those of mewithoutyou, except a bit on the softer side. I recommend this album to you if you want to hear somthing a little different from the generic pop/rock genre offerings. Another feature of the album I liked was the soft introduction and outro because I thought it was a departure from the norm.

For the Love of the Game


Band: Pillar
Song: "For the Love of the Game"
Album: For the Love of the Game
Genre: Rock
Rating: 7/10


I thought that For The Love Of The Game had a decent sound to it. The opening riff was pretty catchy, but the rest of the song was too plain , in my opinion. I liked the guitar on all the Pillar albums so that didn't let me down, fortunately. I don't know how the rest of the album is, but I think this track was pretty good.

I recommend "For the Love of the Game" to anyone who liked The Reckoning and, in particular, the opening track "Everything." I also recommend this song to you if you like a harder rock than other bands such as Reliant K.

The Reckoning


Band: Pillar
Album: The Reckoning
Genre: Rock
Rating: 8/10

Once again Pillar comes through with a sweet, somewhat hard-rockish album. All of the tracks were, in my opinion, insane on guitar riffs. I loved all of the songs on The Reckoning, but my absolute favorite song was "Everything," cause it had a pretty sweet, almost southern-sounding opening guitar line.

The Reckoning is probably my favorite Pillar album! Then again ... I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't bought all of their new album, For the Love of the Game, yet, so I still am not sure. Anyhow, I would highly recommend buying this explosive Pillar album as it will not be a disappointment!
