DAVE GODDESS GROUP
"Something New" (Self-released; 2010)
Reviewed by R. Scott Bolton
"Something New" is old school classic rock in the vein of Tom Petty which is interesting because vocalist/namesake Dave Goddess sounds a little like Petty ... with just a pinch of Bruce Springsteen mixed in.
The songs are solid rockers -- not really hard rock but more along the lines of the aforementioned Petty, the Rolling Stones or even perhaps Lynyrd Skynyrd. All are amazingly well-written and performed and they sound great due to outstanding production and a terrific mix by the legendary Ed Stasium (Ramones).
There isn't a bad song on the CD, even if it does sound a little same-y at times, but if you're a fan of classic rock, this might be the CD for you.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
