Lovedrug – Everything Starts where it Ends

February 18, 2007 By David Gagnon Leave a Comment

Lovedrug

Artist: Lovedrug
Album: Everything Starts Where it Ends
Label: The Militia Group
Purchase: Smark Punk
Release Date: March 6th, 2007

Overall: 8.9
Music: 9.0
Lyrics: 8.8
Production: 8.9

This four piece from Canton, Ohio hope to open your mind and catch your ears all at the same time. Now, many faithful concert goers will have already heard of these guys seeing as they have been touring with such acts as Matchbook Romance, Eisley, The Juliana Theory, Acceptance, Copeland, Mae, and Action Action over the past few years. This, Lovedrugs second major full length release, Everything Starts Where it Ends, is the follow up to the 2004 Pretend You’re Alive, also released on Militia, an may leave you questioning yourself, “where have I been?”

The cd itself is faily moody and will more then likely require a solid listen through, I chose to pop it into my yamaha suround sound for an optimal listening experience, and I was blown away. Atmosphereic rock at it’s best! For example, theyԚ make perfect use of a piano ballad with crunchy guitars to keep you wishing the track “Salt of the Earth” continued on for another 10 minutes. (**I hit repeat)

Sorry to say this, because I just can’t hold back, but anyone who hasn’t been able to remove Mutemath’s self titled from their cd changer can at long last rejoice! At last!!

If your already a fan, or just plain interested,Ԛ be sure to check your local listings as Lovedrug is set to go on tour with Plain White T’s beginning in early March 2007.
