Signal Red - Under The Radar - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2020 . Signal Red made it's mark in 2018 with the of Under The Radar. The band is made up of outstanding musicians, principally guitarist Steve Grocott and vocalist Lee Small. The collaboration with Lee is clearly a good match as Lee has already proved his worth with Shy and more recently with Lionheart as well as solo albums, the Phenomena project and rock band Snowfall. Lee is a very soulful, melodic vocalist and his voice suits Signal Red perfectly. The debut caused quite a stir with it's strong melodic rock roots and this album, Alien Nation, is an extension of that robust rock sound that they have already proved themselves worthy of. We have here 11 tracks of sheer quality and Steve's playing shines through on all tracks. One to watch out for!

Stabilizer Bio Take two complete strangers, leave them in their respective rooms on opposite sides of the country with internet access, and what might you get? You might get nothing, or you might get an album running the gamut from aggressive electronic rock to smooth ambient tunes. The latter is what we see in the case of Stabilizer's 'A Project Called Red.' Brought together on the internet, Brad and Ian began working on their album in mid-2005 without letting the hindrance of never knowing the other musician slow their creative productivity. Within 6 months, Ian's vocal and guitar work perfectly melded with Brad's synthesis and they had given their new band a distinct sound. Along the way, guest musicians including Dan of Blood&Batteries, Luminous Ether, and vocalist Morgan Long joined the fray. In the end, 'A Project Called Red' incorporated talents from Texas to Philadelphia to Florida to Taiwan. This album is groundbreaking in it's diversity and innovative in it's construction. It is definitely not to be missed.
