Maremil Music artist: Alex Lopez - Nasty Crime - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Nasty Crime, from Alex Lopez and it's a solid blues rocker. Opening with rocker, World on Fire, Kana Leimbach leads the way with a firm drum rhythm, joined by Kenny Hoye on keys. Lopez handles lead vocal and places a grinding guitar riff over the bass lines of Steve Roberts. Lopez's melodic lead and slide guitar give the track a full attack over the relentless attack by Leimbach. With a swing, Lopez delivers easy blues ballad, When The Sun Goes Down, with soulful vocals over a cool piano riff. A melodic guitar solo by Lopez and a memorable melody,  makes this track a solid radio contender. Title track, Nasty Crime, is a straight up rocker with a funky back beat. With jangly guitar work by Lopez and John Lord like organ work by Hove over a snappy beat, this is one of my favorite tracks on the release. Driving rocker, No Way, shows how tight the band can be. With a solid melody and strong vocal attack this is another solid radio entry. Wrapping the release is That's Alright with it's bluesy feel and nod to Billy Gibbons. Lopez lays out some real nice guitar work here with clean blues phrasing over rhythm guitar and organ baking this a solid closer.

Maremil Music artist: Alex Lopez - Rising Up - New Release Review

 I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Rising Up, from Alex Lopez and it's a solid blues rocker. Opening with Light It Up, a blues based rocker with a tight bottom Alex Lopez on guitar and vocal leads a tight ship of Kenny Hoye on keys, Steve Roberts on bass, and Kana Leimbach on drums. Title track, Rising Up, is a funky rocker with beefy organ work by Hoye and solid backing vocals by Latonya Oliver and Dana Merriwether giving  Lopez room for a cool solo of his own. Blues ballad, Not This Time is my favorite on the release with a memorable melody, solid instrumentation and inspired guitar work by Lopez. Very nice. Even Up The Score is a cool track built around the basic feel of Albert King's Born Under A Bad Sign... hard to go wrong with that bass figure. Wrapping the release is the radio track from the release, Smile with it's catchy melody and radio ready vocals. melodic guitar soloing and droning bass lines are the key to this solid entry.
