 Music of the Trees - Paul Forrest
Newest Review: ... helped sparked an interest in indigenous religious practices, leading to a final dissertation on the affects of shamanic ... more  ... drumming, an honours degree and no doubt a heightened appreciation of the natural world.
Many reviewers at this point would be content to pick up on the obvious connection between the artists surname and the subject matter at hand and run out a string of, so say, humorous takes on the irony of the situation.

Paul Forrest is one of those people who become more fascinating the more you learn about him.

Some great 1980s style stadium rock 
The vocals aren't always in keeping with the music Contains the Eurovision 2006 winning "Hard Rock Hallelujah" Not as strong as "The Monster Show" an original, beautiful and emotive CD embracing many styles none Great vocals A few weaker links Brilliant sound, it's electro - pop with clear cut lyrics . Waiting ages for another album .You Had It Coming - Jeff Beck
Jeff Beck continuing to evolve. What a poorly chosen direction.
The Silent Circus - Between The Buried And Me
Moving more towards a sound of their own, before it ultimately collapses. Still too much being squeezed into each song, at significant cost to the enjoyment.
Situation Dangerous - Bozzio Levin Stevens
Pretty In Black - The Raveonettes
Pop - 2005
Lust Lust Lust - Raveonettes
Pop - 2007
Jeff - Jeff Beck
Techno rhythms have been toned down. Hip hop and electronic elements still lead the way, and are rubbish.
Darwin - Banco del Mutuo Soccorso
Perfects the chamber prog style, and calms down some of the structural insanity. Still only for hardcore prog fans.
Chain Gang Of Love - Raveonettes
Pop - 2003
Between The Buried And Me - Between The Buried And Me
Attempts to be something different. Awkward results.
Alaska - Between The Buried And Me
More coherent and structured, influences start to merge together rather than oppose. Still threatens to be too heavy for emo fans, and too emo for metalheads.
