Mixerr Album Reviews #806

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Lil Band O Gold - The Promiseland from 2011/2016.

When you look at the album cover artwork of The Promiseland album by Lil Band O Gold, you automatically think of the vaudeville posters of the Victorian era and the Edwardian era with the boisterous bold font of capital letters all in your face directly at you! The large boisterous bold letters give out that antiquated feel and charm along with the opaque colors. This album cover artwork will take you on a journey backwards in time to the Victorian era. Notice how the color scheme is very antiquated with such monotone colors. To sum it all up, think about the vaudeville posters from the Victorian era and Edwardian era.

Louisiana Swamp rock heavyweights from the Bayou such as Warren Storm, Steve Riley, C.C. Adcock, Dave Egan, Richard Comeaux, Pat Breaux, Dave Ranson, and Lil Buck Sinegal all contribute to the soundtrack of this album. The Promiseland album is the soundtrack to the documentary film called The Promiseland.

Sunshine is one on of the best works of the album as described by one of the band members. Sunshine stands out in its own right and way. The sound quality in terms of production and performance is clear especially at the end. The end of Sunshine truly shines. Henceforth so on.

Take notice of the complicated accordion playing on the song Hard Enough. This is one complicated track. Production on the song The Last Hayride is clear. Sound quality is quite similar to Sunshine.

I rate this album, The Promiseland, 5/5*****!
