Number One Gun
To The Secrets and Knowledge
Tooth & Nail
Grade – B
The latest from Jeff Schneeweis project band Number One Gun is out this month and I have been slightly surprised by the new sound. However, it may not be so as it has been a long time since I had heard one of their CD’s. From what I have read on their MySpace page, it sounds as if the band whittled down to just Schneeweis, but in a video posting he states that the original band is joining him again for a few festivals this coming summer.
The new CD reminds me of Falling Up’s style of music. It’s kind of progressive maybe with a pop-rock backdrop. I found that it was easy to get hooked on the sound. It has a highly complex backing soundtrack and poignant lyrics, very intelligent and interesting. There is also a cool cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing.”
The whole album can be downloaded from iTunes for a mere $7.99.
Check it out.
