E-Life 7 - Featuring Michael Pennick - Miked Up Review by Gary Hill Let's make this clear at the onset: this is not progressive rock. It is, however, fusion, and we usually land fusion under prog. A simple review for this album would be "the bass playing is amazing."

Reviewing something like this isn't exactly the easiest thing. More

More
Eddy and the Backfires - Twenty Eight Years Review by Gary Hill This act is apparently one of the hottest German rockabilly bands out there. As good as this album is, I can see why.
More

More
The Electric Hellfire Club - Necessary Evils - The Best Of Review by Gary Hill
I had heard of these guys, but I don't think I'd ever heard them before getting this CD. I had read that they were techno metal.
More
Electric Peace - You're Going to Hell Review by Gary Hill This is an unusual four-song EP. If everything were like the opener, I would probably have landed this under heavy metal.
More

Here we have a reissue of the 1974 release from Elf.
More

More
ELOUR - Blood Running Review by Gary Hill This is a great album. It really pushes a lot of the right buttons for me.
More
Elska (Minnesota) - On the Shoulders of Giants Review by Gary Hill There is a little bit of confusion to resolve here. Larry Toering previously reviewed an album by an artist named "Elska."
More
Pablo Embon - Wicked Strings Review by Gary Hill While for the most part this is all jazz, there is quite a bit of range here.
More
Vicky Emerson - Wake Me When the Wind Dies Down Review by Gary Hill This is quite a cool set. It’s modern pop music with a lot of classic sound and without any annoying modern pop cliché’s built into it.
More

More

More
The Energy - When We Were Young Review by Gary Hill This hard rocking set is very effective.

More
Enuff Z'nuff - 10 Review by Gary Hill Enuff Z’nuff really knows how to make killer hard edged pop music with great retro leanings. On this, their tenth CD, they continue that tradition in fine form.
More
Enuff Z'nuff - Paraphenalia Review by Gary Hill More
Enuff Z'nuff - Covered in Gold Review by Gary Hill I’ve always liked Enuff Z’Nuff. So, I was looking forward to this new album of covers.
More
Richard Tyler Epperson - Hourglass Review by Gary Hill This is quite a satisfying release. Overall it lands somewhere in the mellow pop rock style of artists like John Mayer.
More
Rene Erickson - Silent Street Review by Gary Hill Although he's well versed in other instruments, too, this new release from Rene Erickson focuses entirely on his acoustic guitar work.
More
Ese - All In Review by Gary Hill The music on this disc is raw punk rock. It’s high energy, full of angst and very tasty.
More
David Essex - David Essex Review by Gary Hill This reissue of David Essex’ self-titled debut rather surprised me.
More
David Essex - All the Fun of the Fair Review by Gary Hill This new reissue from David Essex is pretty cool. I don’t think I like it as much as some of his other albums.
More
David Essex - Rock On Review by Gary Hill I’d have to say that most people in the Western world have probably heard the title track to this album.
More
Natalie Estes - 20/20 Vision Review by Gary Hill
This EP is great. It's more or less modern female fronted pop music, at least as a general heading.
More
Sevi Ettinger - Salty Water EP Review by Gary Hill Sevi Ettinger is 15 years old. That's important to remember when listening to this EP. It means that she's just beginning to develop as an artist.
More
Steve Eulberg - Between The Tracks Review by Gary Hill This release is an acoustic guitar solo album. As such it seems like it might be limited.
More
Falkner Evans - Invisible Words Review by Gary Hill This is an album of solo piano works. I guess it's considered jazz, but I only get a minor jazz vibe from it.
More
Falkner Evans - Through the Lens Review by Gary Hill This is the second album from Falkner Evans that I have heard and reviewed. Like the previous one, this is all solo instrumental piano music.
More
Tori Evans - Sonder Review by Gary Hill There is a certain kind of sound that seems almost clichéd these days. Well, technically there are always quite a few of those in play at any given time.
More
Eve To Adam - Auburn Slip Review by Mike Korn Eve To Adam make their debut with "Auburn Slip", and it's apparent that they have skill and talent beyond that of most rookie bands. The four New York transplants, led by the Greek-American Sassaris brothers, have a very polished hard rock sound that should appeal to those into bands like Tool, Creed and other modern alt-rock groups.
More
Nik Everett - Music Review by Gary Hill While this isn’t the most original or unique music you are likely to hear, it is quite effective.
More
Everlost US - Live and Let Go Review by Gary Hill
This new set is an intriguing alternative rock album. It's fairly short with only seven songs. More
The Everydays - The Everydays Review by Gary Hill This North Carolina duo really makes you feel like they came from a bygone era.
More
The Everydays - When It’s All Over Review by Gary Hill The mix between folk and country here is fairly balanced. Some songs land nearly in one camp or the other.
More
Ezla - Outcasts Review by Gary Hill This sort of pop music tends toward being over-produced. While this isn't immune, it fares better than a lot of stuff out there does.
More
