Most would agree most popular artists out there have something truly special to give to their fans. This goes above the typical attributes like raw talent, amazing songs, nice voice, or even a very marketable look, sound and image. There's something truly infectious at the core of these artists that simply makes us feel good when we listen to them. Whatever "it" is - they all seem to have "it".
Today I listened to the latest CD from Arizona based 4 piece Acoustic band The Missing Parts (Suenos - 2011). Venturing to their website it is a very professional presentation showing this is his debut release. From start to finish this CD from TMP is very pleasurable. It has a very striking, highly energetic feel to it and even dabbles in Folk, Accoustic Rock with s Spanish/Mexican type flair. Any fans of any of these musical styles will enjoy this latest release from TMP. It's clearly marketed for those who like a conservative, acoustic sound I get the impression TMP is rolling with what they knows as performers. Favorite tracks include Track 1 (IThe March), Track 2 (Elegy for the Living Dead), Track 8 (Duel), and Track 9 (Ancient Discord). All songs have an amazing feel that you can't help but groove to. Within each one of these compositions TMP let it all hang out by finding their soul and delivers top flight musical mojo. Ths playing/performances/writing is spot on. The overall vibe is mysterious, dark and highly chaotic. Like the title implies this CD is very much like a free flowing dream out to music. You never know what's waiting for you around the next corner.
I see TMP as a diamond in the rough. As time goes by he will no doubt refine and fine-tune their overall sound and musical personality with maybe a drummer and stand-up bassist. I am eager to hear what his next release will sound like. In close most famous artists out there have "it" I'm not so sure what it but The Missing parts has whatever "it" may be.
