Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown Truth and Lies Review
TYLER BRYANT & THE SHAKEDOWN
TRUTH AND LIES
Released on June 28, 2019 (Spinefarm/Snakefarm)
Review:
Truth And Lies is the 3rd album past this foursome based in Nashville, Tennessee. I take to admit this is my first exposure to the band, and I'm quite impressed. According to the band bio, Tyler moved from Texas to Nashville when notwithstanding a teenager and immediately hooked up with drummer Caleb Crosby, ultimately adding Noah Denney and Graham Whitford… the son of Aerosmith guitarist Brad Whitford.
The thirteen track anthology opens up with a rousing "Shock & Awe." Surprisingly it isn't a fast song, merely has a not bad sound and attitude. "Y'all were looking all around for a new obsession, demand an reply that will keep you guessing. Settle for a spoon fed new lie…." This ain't your typical hot girls and party and hot girls type writing style. "On To The Next" has a swagger. Bryant uses a apartment distortion song in the verses to highlight the guitar power quite well as a contrast.
Speaking of distortion, "Ride" uses an overdrive on a slower track, and I'm into it. For those who know Broad Rima oris Mason, or their more contempo iteration of Big And Wide (with Big Sugar), you lot know what I'grand talking about. "Shape I'm In" is a thoughtful ballad in the vein of dejection guy Johnny Lang.At present, "Eye to Center" has some good anger to information technology, even though once again information technology'due south not a speedy vocal. Y'all can hear the hardness in the guitar line and vocal commitment. "Judgment Day" brings to mind a mid-tempo rails from a few years ago… information technology might not exist a fair comparison, but what immediately came to listen was "What I Got" past Sublime. I repent, but that'due south what clicked.
Fortunately, "Drive Me Mad" is a solid rebound rocker. The whole album is well produced, but this track in detail allows me to picture show the band live and aroused. Similarly, "Without You" has some solid drums and leads the listener on an interesting vocal journey. There's a lot going on with "Problem." A fleck of flat vocal processing, southern dejection riffs, the rhythm section is both ambitious and complimentary. It gets amend every bit the vocal progresses. Conversely, "Out There" is a quiet and subtle carol built around a vocal and what sounds like a dobro. At 1 point an electric chimes in, but it's all complimentary. Clearly an emotional effort, as the lyric says, "you never actually know someone… until they're gone." That'due south kind of sad, but "Weep Wolf" rebounds with a hard hitting and angry track.
Every once in a while, an anthology comes along that doesn't quite fit a mould.Truth And Lies isn't '80s hair, '90s shoegaze grunge, or 2000s genre dysmorphia. Truthfully, information technology's more like a combination of dejection rock based '90s Kenny Wayne Sheppard and 2000s Canadian band Wide Rima oris Mason. I can hear Sheppard like guitars, and lyrics / vocals very similar to Sean Verreault. Like those two songwriters, Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown write interesting songs that are heavy but defy a genre box.
