Wolframio, Villians, Hotel Ahead

The following bands have been recommended to me and I have not seen them live

Wolframio

I quite like these guys. They are from Spain and have quite a nice sound to them. From the lack of activity on their myspace I'm assuming they're quite a young band but I could be wrong. Screaming vocals are quite good. Some more definition in the words would be quite good. Singing vocals are a bit flat and the singer needs to improve on this. On the whole though these guys are pretty good and hopefully there will be more stuff for me to check out soon

Villians

Despite what the name says this is a one man band. This guy is quite interesting. The use on banjos is a great idea but I find his voice quite whiney in fact. Some of his songs seem to lack pitch and I don't find anything catchy about him. Instrument wise this guy is brilliant. There's a wide range and there is no restriction into category which is ace to hear.

Hotel Ahead

In all honesty after listening to Days In The Sun from these guys I was all ready to give up on them. It's not a real indication of the talent of these guys. Wait til you get to Figure Me Out and you will be pleasantly surprised. This tune is catchy and the vocals are so easy to hear. The singer has such a soft easy-listening voice. Then I dig the opening of Friday Nights. It's a top tune and if it is ever available on download it will be on my music list. I can't wait for more tracks from these guys. I'm hoping they will develop an even more mature sound.
