thought you could soar LP

From the ‘thought you could soar’ LP Review By Alexander Dorian of Houstonbands.net

“Slivered provides an interesting mix of eclectic psychedelic and alternative rock, in times reminiscent of Porcupine Tree, Voivod circa “Angel Rat” and the British masters Pink Floyd.”

“The band has been around since 2003 so they definitely play well and interact together - lots of interesting stuff happening on all instruments. I was particularly impressed by the rhythm section of Corrigan Luckey (bass) and Viet Doan (drums) kept things well grounded while Justin Box (guitar) and Robin Moore (guitars and lead vocals) kept interweaving chord structures and Lynsey Moore (keys, synth, vocals) added an extra dimension with her performance.”

“Overall the production is very well done, especially the guitars have a very lush and organic 70’s sound. The 70’s feel to it is great considering that everything nowadays sounds so digital. This CD actually sounds big, warm and fluid.”

“It is hard for me to pinpoint favorite songs, but overall I enjoyed the guitar and keyboard interaction as it was particularly well done, especially on songs such as “Devotion Undone” where Robin plays probably what is my favorite guitar solo from the CD. “Dead by Mourning” was another song that I particularly enjoyed as the band picks up tempo on that one. The CD closer, “Goes on Forever” also was another tune that really clicked with me as I feel it provided the overall picture of what the band is about.”

“Definitely a worthy release, especially if you want to hear something different coming out of the Houston scene.”
