Customer Reviews of Angel in My Dream

Chick Quotient!
You may be amazed when you pop in this CD. Modern Grrrl songs flush with electric guitar chords. Singing--some contemporary, some reminiscent of those big-haired gals from the 1980's band, Vixen. Looks like there can be an afterlife to all girl rock bands, and what's more, if you watch VH1, there is an audience wanting to be entertained by them! So Drawing Down the Moon dug out their old Metal albums and their new-found witchy-woman ways and got themselves inspired! <

>The song "Who I Am," sets the lyrical mood for the whole record: relationships are just not gonna work if you expect these ladies to go down easy,'cause you gotta appreciate how strong women can be. The effect is celebratory and sexy as all get out!

I was expecting the second coming of Vixen but...
The Good <
>You certainly can't deny that the group is all about empowerment on the opening track "Pride"; a blend of acoustic chords and electric solos. The layered vocal harmonies are nearly flawless. The acoustic heavy ballad "Blue" has a spiritual feel to it, which may have something to do with the angelic vocal delivery. The spiritualism continues on "Dream", only this time it's on the other side. Although it contains a funky bassline and ample riffs, the track is softened by warm keyboard tones. "Who Am I" is about acceptance, as the vocalist makes it clear that you need to take her or leave her the way she is. Her delivery is full of both power and emotion. The bluesy solo section is quite moving too. <

>I have to agree with the lyrics of the bluesy ditty "Whiskey"; love is like whiskey, sometimes it goes down easy, sometimes it burns. "Live Without Love" is about a jaded lover that is trying to get her emotions over with the help of fuzzy riffs and pounding drums. Drawing Down the Moon cover some really deep and heavy topics on a couple of tracks. "Sister" is about how a confidant stands by her friend after she had her innocence taken by a deplorable excuse of man; a very commanding performance. "Told Me So" may have a think bassline and plenty of tuneful guitar licks, but it tells the tale of an unfaithful husband from the point of view of the other woman. <

>The Verdict <
>I'll admit it, I was expecting the second coming of Vixen, but in the end I was pleasantly surprised. Drawing Down the Moon are strong woman expressing their feelings about deep and heavy subjects, while at the same time setting it to accomplished, pleasing, and well written music. <
