Great CD - Modest, Down to Earth Guys,
By Neetu (British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ex-Girlfriends (Audio CD)
Having had the pleasure of discovering Adam Cohen's solo english effort, I waited for years for the follow up. Fortunately for all of us, Adam has teamed up with some great musicians to form Low Millions and release a really great CD. Noteably, I have to mention Michael Chaves, the guitar player of the band. This man is a genius with his instrument and for those who may not in the loop, he has spent much of his days over the past few years playing with/for John Mayer prior to the formation of Low Millions.Not often have musicians (most of the overly-marketed Top 40 phenoms still pushing past their five minutes of fame) really experienced what they sing about, but listen to the words behind each song on this CD carefully and enjoy the music behind it because you can sometimes feel where the emotion is coming from and how easy it is to empathize with many of the songs. This CD is definately a must have for any music lover's collection. Not only is the CD a great listen but the guys of Low Millions rock LIVE in concert. The guys in the band are so humble and modest and greatly appreciate the support by all the fans in the early stages of what I hope is a long and successful career for them as a band and as individuals. I had the opportunity to chat with them after their show in Vancouver & I would definately hope to see them perform many times in the future.

Fairly decent.,
By Scott Waldon "middle-aged indie rock guy" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ex-Girlfriends (Audio CD)
This was not necessarily a typical purchase for me, as I usually prefer other styles. Upon hearing the first few songs, these adjectives sprung to mind "melodic, slacker, glam". That's how I would describe it. The first 5 songs are very good and have nice choruses; unfortunately the second half winds it down, and is almost formulaic singer/songwriter stuff. If they would have continued in the same vein as they started, it would have been an excellent release. So, 4 stars for the first half; 2 for the second=3.

No, I don't know the band...,
By Tark Mwain - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ex-Girlfriends (Audio CD)
Nor am I a label person. I just really like this album. To be honest I'm a little put off that the last reviewer found it out of the realm of possibility that people legitimately think this band is good just because she/he didn't think they were anything special. People are way more intense about liking much more mediocre stuff. Just had to get that off my chest. Sure, there is a lot of pop/rock out there and most of it isn't very good but a lot of it ends up on the radio anyway, don't know how that happens. Basically these are just really well structured pop songs. The singer has a nice catch in his voice, and the lyrics are thoughtful. No real dark or serious stuff but they fit the tone of the music. The production may be a little slick depending on what you're into, but the band is undoubtedly genuine. I can understand the Maroon 5 comparisons these guys get, but I think they're better. Less pseudo-funk posturing. Overall I think it's a big accomplishment to make an album that stands out in such a bloated genre. Most of all, I give this a high rating because I find myself putting it on all the time and I haven't gotten tired of it at all.

Finally, an album you can listen to from beginning to end!,
By Bubba O'Reilly "100.7 Mix-FM" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Ex-Girlfriends (Audio CD)
These do exist; you just don't find them very often."Ex-Girlfriends", the debut album from Low Millions is one of them and promises a little something for every mood. "Eleanor", the first single from the album, is one everyone can sing-along with. Upbeat, great lyrics, and great vocals from lead singer Adam Cohen. "100 Blouses", an ironic track about searching for a lost love in the "love" of others. A mellow track and hopefully, the bands next single. "Diary", a darker track with an edgy beat. Fave lyrics - "I read how you resent me, you even dreamed that I was dead. You said you thought that I'd look stunning with a bullet in my head." "Statue", another mellow track about lost love. Upbeat at times. A great song to drive to... don't ask ;). "Nikki Don't Stop", a sultry track that doesn't need a whole lot more description. "Hotter than a stolen Rolex, hotter than late-night phone sex"... need I go on? Those are just a few of my favorite tracks, but again, the entire album is set on repeat. The album title is fitting, seeing as how every track is essentially a love song, each with its own individual feel and sound. Add one more die-hard fan to the growing list. These guys are gonna be around for a while. |
