Music Stuff

Listening to the new Keane album. I'm enjoying it as much as i didn't want to enjoy the first one, and yet still did.

Where the first one was a cry for Coldplay ripoff, but still held enough integrity to warrant praise, this one seems to follow the same vein, just incorporating some more electronic sounds into the mix. It's very standard and very good, which follows my yelp for bands being good instead of trying to be different.

For the best in keyboard centered contemporary music, I encourage you to try Chroma Key. It's Kevin Moore, formerly of Dream Theater. Once he left, that band was clueless, and they've never recovered, but rather seeped into the same running rhythms and tempo changes of progressive rock hell.

Chroma Key and O.S.I. (Kevin Moore's side project). They show no mercy and offer so much more.
