Blue October– Any Man In America (RED) Quando o Blue October anunciou que lançaria um novo disco, em 2009, e que ele seria um pouco diferente dos já produzidos até então, houve um certo temor. A fórmula até aí havia dado certo. Justin Furstenfeld , o vocalista e principal compositor, atormentado pela bipolaridade, estava bem e Approching Normal , um álbum "feliz", saiu. Dois anos depois e novos problemas, dessa vez familiares – um divórcio no currículo, trazem Justin a escrever novamente de seus medos e temores. E os texanos do [...]

Given recent events across the UK and particularly in London writing about independent music may be low down the list of many peoples priorities this week, but stating the obvious this is a music blog and although Beat Surrender has no 'Mission Statement ' but part of the blogs 'job' is to promote and support great music - the big players don't need assistance, but Beat Surrender can (I hope) help the independents in some small way, and right now they need some help . One of the labels affected [...]
When an album begins with the line "If you ever get famous, don't forget about me/I hope it's everything that you thought it would be," it's easy to imagine that most people might be a little dubious. After all, hasn't the message been written or sung a hundred times before? Could it ever be sung in a way that was interesting and fresh, ever again? And isn't the person singing it probably already at least a little famous? The Duke and The King , who already have a bit of a following in Britain, have collected [...]
The Duke & The King - 2009 debut U.K. album Nothing Gold Can Stay from Simon Felice (ex Felice Brothers) and Robert Bird Burke had critics swooning, a folksy Americana jewel that drifted into more retro-soul domains on last year's follow up Long Live with the addition of Simi Stone and Nowell "The Deacon" Haskins...New collection -- the band's American debut, incredibly -- pulls tracks from the two albums // Release : The Duke and the King (August 16, SilvaOak) // Sounds like : the reference points could go [...]

Back in 2009, The Duke and The King released one of my favorite albums that year . Last year they released their sophomore album - Long Live The Duke & The King. Apparently it was HUGE overseas but didn't make any noise here in the US. The band has decided to combine the best songs from their debut and their sophomore and release a "self-titled" album. It comes out August 16 Via So Recordings. I was lucky enough to get a promo of the record and digested it all [...]

After much consideration I have managed to put the top ten long-players that have rocked my world the most this year in list form. I'm going to get it written up before I decide to fine tune it any more! Where I have reviewed an album on the site I have included a link for your convenience. The one thing that surprised me compiling this list is that some of the records I waxed so lyrical about have ended up lower down the pile than I imagined. A couple in my top ten I have not even reviewed, not [...]

Remember that indie gospelish/folking/rockish band, the Felice Brothers? No? Well, you can be forgiven-the band wasn't around nearly long enough. But Simone Felice rose as part of Duke & The King (along with Robert Chicken Burke),whose 2009 debut, "Nothing Gold Can Stay," was awesome. Their sophmore release, is even rootsier and more soulful. I mean, the 1970s ballads "Shakey" harmonizes about how the Jackson 5 grew up too fast, so shake your country ass. It sounds a lot sweeter when they sing it, trust me. The album also features by former Funkadelic member Nowell "The Deacon" Haskins and [...]
"one of best bands in america", so titelte jüngst die uncut, dürfte ruhig etwas präsenter sein! ohne den hinweis von b. wäre mir das aktuelle album von the duke and the king glatt durch die lappen gegangen. man kann nur einen gewissen teil der absonderungen des musikbusiness im auge behalten. und selbst in diesem segment verliert man allzu schnell den überblick. mit ihrem debut "nothing gold can stay" hatte die truppe um den felice brother simone bereits für furore gesorgt. ein album, dem man grower status nachsagen musste, dessen eingängigkeit ohrwurmqualität trug, das so sanft und zärtlich melodien [...]
