About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: NYC-based The Hillary Step produces great melodic acoustic rock. The band is another link in the great chain of rock 'n' roll evolution. In between the angry, leftover rap-metal bands and the bland, ubiquitous pop of today, the duo's distinctive songs take listeners on a musical journey. Their clever, catchy tunes effortlessly shift from mid-tempo pop songs to jazz-inflected ditties to full-tilt, balls-forward reggae jams. One of the truly exciting live bands around, The Hillary Step has built a sizable following at it's shows. The band has played gigs in New England,the Midwest and most extensively in the New York metropolitan area, including hot spots Central Park Summer Stage, The Bitter End, Arlene's Grocery, Caffé Vivaldi, Fontana's Bar, Kenny's Castaways and The Lion's Den. The Hillary Step features Rob Schiffmann (guitar, vocals, songwriting and everything else) and Jon Rothstein (bass, vocals, songwriting). Friends since childhood, they reunited after college and started writing acoustic rock songs as the duo Urban Badlands. After Urban Badlands grew into a six (sometimes seven) piece band, The Hillary Step was born, anchored by Rob and Jon and their smart, hummable tunes. One CD (InchKnee Deep in GiantsInch) and many years of performing together later, The Hillary Step has returned to it's roots as a duo, backed by the talents of Ale Devries (drums), Greg Hopkins (electric guitar), Annie Schiffmann (vocals) and Eric March (keyboards). Named for the perilous last forty feet before Mt. Everest's summit, The Hillary Step continues to climb to new heights in 2010. Rob and Jon have re-teamed with producer Ziad (Z) Al-Hillal to record their second CD InchNote to SelfInch. Their new songs reflect their musical evolution while maintaining their solid hooks and gorgeous, three-part harmonies. Album Tracks 1. Meanwhile 2. Jackie 3. The Only Thing 4. Mama 5

Around the Fur the follow-up to Deftones' passionate, aggressive Adrenaline, sees the California quartet expanding on the sheer rage of their earlier work, adding new, more sinister shades to their already extreme sound. The opening InchMy Own Summer (Shove It),Inch serves as an introduction to the album's sonic theme sinewy guitars and eerie whispers alternate with fast, violent crunch. Sepultura's Max Cavallero contributes guitar and vocals to InchHeadup,Inch while InchMXInch finds singer Chino trading off vocal lines with Annalynn Cunningham, (wife of Deftones' drummer Abe) in an acerbic take on the rock star mentality. Vocal acrobat Moreno attacks a variety of styles his breathy, psychotic recitations sound downright industrial, while the album's calmer, more brooding moments show his gift for haunting melody. Behind him, guitarist Stephen Carpenter's heavy wall of sound is astoundingly muscular, yet inspiringly agile. When Deftones' hellish fury hits full tilt, as it always does on this album, Moreno's voice erupts into screams which are best described as otherworldly, transforming this intense musical firestorm into a hurtling juggernaut of aggression. This LP version comes pressed on 180 gram vinyl. Album Tracks 1. My Own Summer (Shove It) 2. Lhabia 3. Mascara 4. Around the Fur 5. Rickets 6. Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) 7. Lotion 8. Dai the Flu 9. Headup 10. MX
