Editorial Reviews
"Playing it safe for most bands usually means churning out unispired fodder, but in the case of Kansas City's The Rockhills, this rule need not apply. Armed with an arsenal of adult oriented modern rock, this four-piece bounces from loose, jangly Americana pop(think Tom Petty) to comfortable, hippie-era tendencies(imagineGrateful Dead meets The Band).
No stranger to successful songwriting, Phil Neal( also known for his time in The Power Ties and an MTV-aider solo career) leads his crew through eleven mature tracks that seldom reveal a flaw. Standouts include the gentle, heart-on-the-sleeve opener "Two Time Loser," the hillbilly pop of "Fearof the Man" and "Homeless", which rocks out country style courtesy of a smooth slide guitar and restless harmonica approach. Other keepers :the lazy, ramlber "Burns Like a Flame" and the rlentless toe tapper "American Girls."
While ost of the cuts here rely on smart vocal hooks and harmonies, The Rockhills also demonstrate a tremendous talent on a variety of instruments - something that seems to be missing in much of today's alternarock. Without a doubt, this should leave the contemporary rock fan craving more." Shane P. Dolbier, PitchWeekly The Weekly Newspaper For Metro Kansas City
