@FinallyANickNotTaken His name is Kevin Martin and he was the lead singer of Candlebox and he isn't meant to replace Ed so to say he doesn't sound as good isn't fair to him or the new group that they have all formed.
Saw them in Seattle last night..... Kevin still has the energy. However really let down. Show was 110 percent for the first half then meh. No disrespect but on the way home had to rock the candlebox cd to get my head straight. Badass song though.
Yowza. To me, totally epic. This song just blew me away. It's about time their's some quality loud hard 'n heavy RnR sound from back in the day. A sound I crave. Don't worry Liveoneut...I'll be spreadin' the word. :)
They are playing Oct. 31 in Ephrata, PA in a small theater with 200 seats so up close is cool. I found the tickets online..only $20 at Ephrata Main Theater.
It's so sad that I had to go search for this after looking into their other bands. This really is good, and should be given a fair chance. I'm really digging it.
What a great song!!! His voice is pure bliss... So original and strong.. He's consistent throughout the whole song... Great guitar riff at the bridge! Oh so love this song... A favorite from here on out!
The class of these artists just permiates thru and thru.......Look forward to many years of good Gracious shit........keep driving the nail boys, it's still sending a powerful message...We will never tire of this!..bring on 14 September.......
The class of these artists just permiates thru and thru.......Look forward to many years of good Gracious shit........keep driving the nail boys, it's still sending a powerful message...We will never tire of this!..
A part of me hopes they'll be more successful than Ed. Ed crapped all over his band and I'm not interested in anything he's involved in. Greed and his inflated ego has left me disillusioned, and I have a great loss of respect for him. He lost his best friends.
I think this song cements the fact, that Kevin Martin is still the most relvant artist from the music scene of the 90's. I seen him with Candlebox just last week, and the guy sounds unfreakinbelievable! Not to mention that his stage presance is second to none. No one out there today sings with the passion and soul that Kevin does. Step aside Chris Cornell, and Eddie Vedder and take notice. Neither of you have recorded anything relavent for 10yrs. Kevin Martin is definitely having the last laugh!
@Mainrollman Thats a bold statement bro... The term "relevant" is all relative! Relevancy should not be confused with quality!Eddie has come out with lots of good music in the last 10 years, LOTS! Cornell has come out with some decent music too. No need to rag on two of the best artists out there in order to support Martin.
That said, this song Honest Man just rocked my face off!
@TheDeadCenterlive I'm not bashing Cornell or Vedder. As I am a big fan of both. And while I will admit, I am an even a bigger fan of Martin, I didn't say this because I felt the need to support him. I think his music speaks for itself. And "IMO" and you know what they say about opinions, it's MY opinion, his work and voice has held up better than both Cornell and Vedder's as the years have gone by.
@Mainrollman You're entitled to your opinion dude - I wasn't looking to bash it at all, thats definitely not my style. I was just showin some love for Vedder and Cornell!
@TheDeadCenterlive It's all good man. And your entitled to your opinion also. I have great respect for both Cornell and Vedder. In fact, I watched a live version of Soundgarden's Far Beyond The Wheel on here just today. And it's unreal how good Cornell's voice sounded. Look it up. It was filmed at the Showbox this spring during their reunion concert they played there.
This song has really grown on me. I was not used to Kevin martin's voice, but it's damn awesome...Very passionate vocals and excellent instrumentation.
By the way, this is a cool song, the only thing is I can't stop imagining how it would have sounded with Ed's voice.. then again, it may have not come out like this at all..
@liyzette Yeh it's not hard to imagine how this song would sound with Ed's voice on it but I think this new guy has a great voice in it's own right. I always love Chad's guitar textures.
@LargelyGay Admittedly, LIVE the song Heaven in which Ed references his daughter, but lets remember he is not the only one to have had a child or more. What is the wrong in writing a song for your child? I honestly thought it was a beautiful song.
@LargelyGay I don' t really think there is any correlation between having balls and choosing to draw inspiration from the children that you feel God blessed you with, in writing lyrics. Considering how unique Ed's lyrics are (and have always been), and the fact that he is not afraid to sing about aspects of spiritual truth, I think he could be considered to be bolder.
Actually, I think you are entitled to your opinion about this, but there are those of us who can equally appreciate The Gracious Few and Ed at the same time, so you could keep it polite for us, heh?
