Jon Cleary do Not Disturb

After having achieved world wide popularity, getting massive success for songs like "Don't Let Me Down" and "Closer", and releasing two EPs with various collaborations, The Chainsmokers are finally releasing their debut studio album named "Memories…Do Not Open". The project contains a lot of interesting featured artists that have worked with Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall over time, including Coldplay, Alessia Cara, Dua Lipa and Bebe Rexha. They have already squeduled a world tour that will follow the LP release on April 7th, 2017.

A shock-wave of incandescent, bare bones, red-blooded Rock-n-Roll grit, Halestorm – the incomparable vocals of Lzzy Hale, the percussive talents of Lzzy’s brother, Drummer Arejay Hale, alongside cutthroat Guitarist Joe Hottinger, and the concrete foundation of Bassist Josh Smith – return on the hot new album Vicious, set to drop on Friday, July 27, 2018, thanks to the legendary Atlantic Records.

Jon Anderson's voice immersed in South American music might seem an unlikely match, but the rich and vibrant tones of Deseo provide a strikingly fresh setting for the singer. Augmented by well-known artists from across South and Latin America, the Yes vocalist seems content to recede into the background on many of the tracks, retaining a native flavor with stellar cameos from Maria Conchita Alonso, Boca Livre, Milton Nascimento, and many others. The songs, which generally clock in around three-and-a-half minutes, are warm and upbeat, mixing English, Portuguese, and Spanish vocals with propulsive percussion, acoustic guitars, bass, and synthesizers. The melodies are lovely and atmospheric, uncomplicated but evocative…

This is an oddity: a Christmas album incognito. Save a red and green stripe on the back cover, the outside packaging is conspicuously devoid of the usual holiday trappings, leaving the astute person to deduce from the track listing Three Ships' true intent. Further complicating matters is the fact that half of the songs are new compositions from Jon Anderson, none of which have holiday-related titles (unless "Forest of Fire" warms your holiday chestnuts). On listening to this, the songs themselves do little to clear up the confusion; while the traditional tunes ("Three Ships," "The Holly and the Ivy") are obviously Christmas songs, the new compositions are spiritual in Anderson's typically general sense and rarely address Christmastime directly…

"I've worked hard all day," the fifth song opines, "I just wanna relax/Take my shoes off–kick my feet up/Put on an old Marvin Gaye track…" A unwise antecedent to invoke, for over the course of ten pleasantly Peabo'd urban soul slices, Mr. Perry shoots to the vocal stratosphere from his own backyard armed with one neat trick – the women singers who tag-grab his glissandos like stage-two rockets after he falls away from them – for an apogee, of, perhaps, the shoulder blade of the supine mountain range that is Marvin. Marvin will never move again…
