Christian McKee - Tripas De La Miseria
Christian McKee only released a download album six months ago, but he is already back with a follow up; ‘Tripas De La Miseria’… whatever that means.
His songs are once again available for free via his website, the album seems to have a very 80’s like production, the opening track ‘Disappear & Don’t Return’ sounds like it has been lifted straight from the Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack, as soon as you hear McKee’s vocal style on that track you’ll know what I mean.
The album features a nice mix of songs with substance and simple and infectious pop tunes. The musical performance on here is pretty basic, but that’s all that’s needed. It’s nice to see that McKee is confident enough to let his vocals and the lyrics carry these ten songs.
While nothing on here is particularly groundbreaking, it is a strong album full of strong songs which is gimmick free. ‘Tripas De La Miseria’ makes for a nice listen, there’s a perfect balance between upbeat numbers and laid back numbers.
Given the short time between the release of this album and his previous it is clear to see what a clever songwriter this young lad is. He has lots of potential and is definitely worth watching as I’m sure we’ll be hearing much more from him.
