Wet Wet Wet’s 20th Anniversary

Music, Review, Talented Artists

The latest album of Wet Wet Wet - Timeless- was released in november 2007. This Scottish band is very close to me for a long time. In my opinion this band is one of the greatest bands of the 80’s and 90’s . Their music is pure, sensual and passionate and they always have had a very high standard from the beginning. More than 10 albums full of beautiful songs, that I never get tired of.

The band’s leadsinger, Marti Pellow has got an amazing voice and a great live performance.

Definitely he is a huge talent and he is always very enthusiasm, dynamic and maximalist on the stage. His performance is always very credible.

The first time I saw him was in the video clip of „Angel Eyes” on MTV. He was so joyfull, charming, charismatic and singing extremely well, fully with heart and soul. And his smile…

Album Covers in the Spotlight

Music, Review

The other day I was shopping in a local music store and to be honest some album covers totally shocked me. I know the fact that the cover is not as important as the quality of the songs on the album, but the labels should spend more time to make quality and creative covers. As far as I know, the covers are designed by professional designers and photographers but the result is sometimes a disaster. I don’t get it how can the labels release awful pictures from their own artists. In my opinion the labels are kinda wanton when it comes to releasing a new album. Moreover success on sales depends on the quality of the cover. The extreme, tasteless and disadvantageous covers affect negatively the reception of the songs on the certain album. Furthermore some artists are barely recognizable on their actual album, and I find it kinda annoying. Read the rest of this entry »
