Broadjam Artist: Fred Kimmel
Song: Spiral
Reviewer: Rich Goldin
Positive Comments: This song has a great hook. It is well recorded, has a strong vocals, and solid lead guitar figures throughout. The drum mix is excellent as is the tempo keeping. The bass work is very solid and locks right in with the groove of the song. I like the lyric “Round In Spiral” which I believe is the right title for the work. Love it.
Constructive Comments: The constructive criticism I could offer might be that the lead vocal is a bit crushed in the mix. I’m having difficulty hearing the lyric. I would perhaps think that this work could cross over into the heavy metal category vs. prog rock. Some of the artist’s influences are creeping in. I hear Motley Crue and Marilyn Mason. Again, those influences are mostly felt within the vocal. I love this style of music and my criticisms are mostly taste oriented on my part. This is great work.
