...deft finger-tapped leads that added an organic urgency to ROYs aggressive, angular compositions. The highlight was still Shirley, whose effortless acrobatics behind the kit provided not only the visual focus, but also much of the structure, energy and momentum of the bands set While the next band prepared, Michael Trundle hopped onstage to...

...deft use of new capabilities like production on demand so a small label or artist doesn't have a bunch of stuff sitting around.

...deft combination of world-weary fighter and sensitive poet plays out with both hardcore realism as on "Mama Knew Love," where he sings, "Mama knew love like the back streets/Used to wipe pee just to make the ends meet," and then urban humor on "Cornbread, Fish & Collard Greens," in which he wryly proclaims, "If you want it (I can rock your...

Top sounds from '07
