There it was in September

I couldn't wait until September comes, because after small amount of releases I'd been waiting for earlier this year, there were many announced for this month. And it was worth waiting, because a lot of great albums saw its daylight and I belive everyone found something new for himself/herself in September.

As it's comming to an end I would like to share with you some songs that cought my attention this month. Some of them were released recently, some I discovered some time ago (why noone told me about Damien Rice before?), while the others are just something I kept on listening to for a while or were on my list to listen and I just had a time to do so. Below there is the result of what musically happened to me in September. Hope you'll enjoy.

'World On Fire' by Slash, Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators

Did rock ‘n’ roll die? Slash’s coming with his third album World On Fire to prove that it’s alive and doing pretty well. As on previous album, he’s accompanied by Myles Kennedy & the Conspirators (featuring Todd Kerns on bass and Brent Fitz as a drummer).

Slash himself claimed that this album shouldn’t be seen as his solo project but as the effect of collaboration between all members of the band, what was my first thought, while listening to World On Fire. There is noticeable improvement of their understanding of each other, what results in how they sound like, what is surely outcome of playing together during past tours.

'Somewhere Under Wonderland' by Counting Crows

On ‘Mr. Jones’ Adam Duritz sings ‘We all want to be big stars’ and that very song allowed Counting Crows to become ones. They were even nominated for The Academy Award after their song ‘Accidently in Love’ was featured in ‘Shrek 2’ movie. And now the band presents their seventh album Somewhere Under Wonderland, the first one containing fresh material since 2008’s Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings.

As first single, Counting Crows chose ‘Palisade Park’, which can’t be called radio – friendly song, as it lasts for over 8 minutes. It starts with trumpet playing and when the band joins we are introduced into the story of grown – ups, tired of their everyday life, trying to go back in time, as they travel to place from the past.
