Crack the sky safety in numbers cd

The two songs written by Palumbo aren't even the best -- that distinction would have to go to "A Night on the Town With Snow White ," a delightful piece that mixes styles from the s and progressive rock in a way that is probably unique. There are other lyrical gems here too, including the grim title cut and the sarcastic concert favorite "Lighten Up McGraw.

Taken as a whole, Safety in Numbers showed that there was more to Crack the Sky than John Palumbo , and that the band was ready to carry on in high style.

I guess Palumbo is singing. His voice is shot. They should have left this masterpiece alone! NOT an improvement! Originally Posted by Guitarplyrjvb. Originally Posted by Sturgeon's Lawyer. Originally Posted by interbellum. On the verge of indecision I'll always take the roundabout way.

Their last really good album. Along with their debut, this is their second best. Macht das ohr auf! I like the drums and bass as well. The best part is that instrumental section after 3 minutes as the guitar lights it up.

I'm not going to say much about the rest because I don't like to be insulting but "Nuclear Apathy" isn't bad at all but I found as the album played out I got less interested. The three tracks left off the original probably shouldn't have been added here although that's just my opinion. I am amused with "Jungle Man Lonely" though for some reason haha.

A low 3 stars as I'm just into commercial sounding music although there is one proggy track in my opinion. This just doesn't suit my poor tastes I guess. This is quite an interesting cd, since it's essentially a re-recording of a classic album, except with new guitar parts, a nice remix, and John Palumbo's much grittier vocals added onto the mix.
