PUBLISHER’S PICK OF THE WEEK (By Adam Waldman)
BLACK STONE CHERRY – “Again”
A swampy, boot-stomping intro yields way to a powerful groove and Chris Robertson’s smooth, soulful vocals. Drenched in southern rock goodness, Black Stone Cherry’s “Again” takes some interesting twists into slower, more emotive moments with guitar picking. Like a coiled spring, this song leaves you on the edge just waiting for it to explode out of the slower, melodic parts into a heavy groove. Though there are plenty of guitar and bass rhythms, John Fred Young’s drumming really sets the tone throughout with some, well-timed, crafty fills that a casual listener may not stand up and take notice right away. However, the more you listen to it, the more your appreciate Young being the locomotive that gets this train rolling.
