Elvis Jackson - Against the Gravity

 Elvis Jackson - Against the Gravity,2009
Slovenia
EJ Records (self released for RSQ magazine), 2009
Punk/Raggae/Ska..

(13 tracks, 43min, CD~Lame~Mp3@V0, 90MB)

Probably most successful Slovenian punk band, that built their base of fans with original sound and mostly fun and unforgettable live performances. This is their 4th album (1999, 2001(re-mastered)-MOVE YOUR FEET IT'S ONE O'CLOCK, 2000-GO HOME AND PRACTICE, 2004-SUMMER EDITION). Against the Gravity was produced by some hot shot names in Usa (Produced by Bill Gould - Bass @ Faith No More, Mixed by Rich Veltrop - Tom Petty, Rage Against the Machine, Slayer, System of a Down, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ozzy with South Park,...) They have distanced a bit from their originality and innovative song structure with this album. The perfect sound and melodies are also reaching for larger commercial success, but they lost some previous Elvis Jackson with it. Some songs are almost too cliché, what we were not used wit them in the past. All in all this is very solid album, that will reach more people than previous ones. It is a proof that Slovenian band can match popular world artists. Definitely worth checking out. Read more about the band at: EJ Official page EJ MySpace You can still buy this album very cheap HERE. Don't forget to visit a show within the rest of the tour (dates available @ official EJ site), you will not be disappointed!
