Down II Rock Music CD Review

Down, very talented Rock group have released their latest CD titled II and Wow! It’s really a good one.

Unfortunately, it’s not everyday that I get a CD for review that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with II. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

These days it’s a very rare CD on which every single song is good or better than the one before it. This CD is certainly one of those rare CDs.

Listen to II and I believe you’ll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and this is clearly the work of a group of musicians in top form. So much so that if you're even mildly into Rock music you'll enjoy this CD.

While this entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 - There's Something On My Side, track 5 - Ghosts Along The Mississippi, and track 15 - Landing On The Mountains Of Meggido.

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Lysergik Funeral Procession. Good stuff!
