Calie Cox is an American multi-instrumentalist. His creation are inspired by Rock from 80 years. This time Calie Cox released solo album entitled “Obvious”. The album contains 13 songs.
The music from “Obvious” is very spatial, stimulant imagination and feeling. However I don't mean about negative emotions or dark, frightful experiences. I think about different emotions. The compositions are calm, gentle, including many melodious phrases and romantic-nostalgic accents. Practically in majority the songs are rock ballads. They are ideal to dance with some nice girl and to cling close to her by off light as well as whisper to her ears some romantic words. Many diabolical metalheads will deny now and will say that such parties aren't for them. But we will do everything for a girl if we want to acquire her soul 🙂
Like I mentioned the majority of composition is balladic. Their structure mainly is built from chordal passages, gentle guitars, melodious solos as well as climatical keyboards moments. I must add that the very specific singing (in high tones) sounds over the music. The sound of the singing is similar to vocals from MARILLION. However this is not all what we will hear…
Calie Cox also proposes us sharper hard rock themes with stronger hitting of drums and dynamic riffs. These sharper tracks arouse a listener to motoral activity and a bit of madness.
The whole is very melodious, rhythmical and very instrumental. In principle each instrument became arranged curiously and its part is indispensable to producing suitable climate or to emphasis of some emotions. During listening of “Obvious” I had several musical associations. Mainly connected with MARILLION (some phrases are very similar to climates this band) or RUSH and sometimes with LED ZEPPELIN.
