THE NOISE

“This has the Rolling Stones and the Beatles written all over it: just have a listen to the opener, “It’s Gettin’ Late” or “Noly-Noly Crimbellum.” Quite appropriate for a band claiming to be reminiscent of the British Invasion… and American roots rock. As music that is referred to as “both the forest and the trees,” I am rather fond of it. Conference is a testament to determination and commitment, and is more solidified than their previous releases. The sound is edgy and inventive. “Call Me Elvis Now” has the potential of being a mainstream radio hit. “Let the Demons Die” is entertaining and quirky with its country flavor, while “Noah’s Canon” is a well-crafted instrumental ode. Suitable for audiences of all ages, this disc is worthy of repeated listens. To put it simply, there is plenty to like here.”
