Album Details
Blessid Union of Soul Are Currently One of the Biggest Up and Coming Acts in the Us and have Just Scored a Billboard Top 40 Hit with their Single 'hey Leonardo' Taken from the Album 'walking off the Buzz'.
Amazon.com
On Walking Off the Buzz, Blessid Union of Souls skate from adult contemporary soul to roots rock, failing to do either well. Lead singer Eliot Sloan has a fine R&B-suited voice, but he attempts to add unnatural depth, ache, and character. It sounds like every few seconds someone tightly grips his neck then releases it. With forgettable jangly acoustic-guitar rhythms, uninspired keyboard support, and ho-hum love lyrics and pointless pop-culture references, these songs are about as deep as a kiddie pool (which makes their by-the-sheet-music cover of the Beatles' "Revolution" insultingly misplaced). With the exception of "Stone Glass Window," which flashes an attractively toothy Southern-rock smile, this album is Mellencamp without the melodrama, Skynyrd without the scrotum, Kravitz without the charisma, P.M. Dawn without the poetry. --Beth Massa
Customer Reviews
This album ROCKS!
We took our teenaged daughter and a friend to a Blessid Union concert back in April because we were all fans of their top 40 hit singles, but after the concert we purchased "Walking Off The Buzz." This album rocks with meaning...and a step up in tempo from the first two. I would recommend this CD to any age group...FYI..."Hey Leonardo" Is my least favorite song on the whole album & I must say I do like that song!
Every song on here is good
This is a cd you can put on repeat and just let it sit there for the rest of the day. I saw these guys in concert, and never before have I seen a band interact with the crowd (general admission of 3000) since Collective Soul. I would suggest Collective Soul as well as this band.
Awesome! Must listen to!
A fabulous album with a great sound! Its got a wide variety of songs which you just want to hear over and over! A+++
