The Brave<\/strong> have returned again with a monster of an album! Chock full of gorgeous melodies and tremendous hooks.\u00a0 The independently produced and released album entitled Evie\u2019s Little Garden<\/strong><\/em> is most assuredly going to please fans both old and new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I must admit I never heard their 2014 release \u201cRise\u201d after many fans cried foul on the production part of things.\u00a0 All I can say about ELG is that this release is crisp, punchy and rich.\u00a0The definition and care provided on this release is world class and truly delivers the goods. These days unless you want a sloppy raw sound there is no excuse for it, The Brave have offered us something that sounds like the world class release this is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Melodic hard rock\/metal with clear 80s overtones is what you get here; however the song palette is so rich and diverse. Album opener and title track \u201cEvie\u2019s Little Garden\u201d is a delightful romp overflowing in hooks and melody.  The lyrical take on the Garden of Eden events in Genesis 1 is tremendous. A fabulous retelling of the fall of man wrapped tightly in 4 and half minutes of sonic goodness, that in a nutshell is what you should expect from each track here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cLonely Bones\u201d is melancholy and powerfully memorable, \u201cRun to You\u201d is a delightful romp about returning to the Lord after being away.  The extremely deep lyrical content of \u201cI\u2019ve Always Wondered\u201d discusses what if Jesus hadn\u2019t come to die for us. Packaged in a memorable melody with a huge chorus that never feels cheesy or silly all of these songs are top drawer material. And to reinforce the production is fabulous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We\u2019re not in Kansas Anymore” is another brilliantly executed mid tempo track that thrives in its amazing melody and delightful arrangement. Album closer \u201cLove: Automatic\u201d is a great album closer, kicking it into gear during the chorus that will have you reaching for the replay button again and again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band this time out consists of Stayce Roberts (Lead Vocals, Guitarist, Keyboards); Malcolm Paris (Bass, Backing Vocals) & John Spittle (Drums).  There is some truly fantastic playing here. Stayce\u2019s vocals throughout are fantastic raspy, punchy and strong. He also delivers some fabulous guitar licks throughout. The rhythm section of Malcolm and John are solid tight and are right there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without a doubt this is one of the finest releases this year.\u00a0 If you\u2019re a fan of the Frontiers Records<\/strong> label style releases then you MUST get this album.\u00a0 Evie\u2019s Little Garden<\/em> will give any melodic hard rock their fix for 2021.\u00a0 A world class album, elite.\u00a0 This album is available for purchase both download through ITunes<\/a> and CD from the band direct<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
