Album Notes

Megaphone, consisting of former members of other successful national and local bands, is the Orlando super group. Founding member, rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist, Matt Bloodwell, was the drummer for Orlando band Precious before he started working on megaphone. Lead guitarist, Paul Smith who once toured with 7 mary 3, joined the band after coming off the road with Von Ray in support of their debut album on Electra Records. Drummer, Matt Brown, was recently in 3AE signed to RCA records. And bass player, James Woodrich, toured extensively with Orlando favorites My Hotel Year (Dog House Records). "When I began writing these tunes Matt, Paul and James were exactly the guys I had in mind. Some how, all of them were available at the same time and it was just the kind of vibe they were looking for. I love when a plan comes together"

Megaphone's sound is loud, unashamed, stick to the side of your head, 3-quarter-sleeve, guitar ROCK! "We aren't concerned with trends or what may be the style of the moment. We know what we like and that is how we approach song writing. We love melodies that stick in your head and music with a strong attitude."

REVIEWS

Megaphone is a rock band that knows what they're
author: Tony Sison - All Access Magazine, Los Angeles, CA
FOR CRYIN’ OUT LOUD / Megaphone Megaphone Music 2005 Megaphone is a rock band that knows what they're doing. Their songs are structured and ear catching, and they posses a sound that's all their own. As they prove with their smashing debut album, ’For Cryin’ Out Loud’. As a whole comes off very strong, with tracks that can go punch for punch with the best of them. Songs such as "Freak" and "Not Your Enemy" really kick things off with a bang. Other great songs that follow are "Wasted", "Drama Queen" and "Stain". Megaphone, is powered by founding member, rhythm guitarist and lead vocalist, Matt Bloodwell, lead guitarist, Paul Smith , drummer, Matt Brown and bass player, James Woodrich. Every song on this CD is enjoyable but don't expect anything unique. The lyrics are straight forward and simple but are accompanied by really great hooks and melodies. I can promise you this, you won't regret getting your hands of this CD. I do have to warn you though, ’For Cryin’ Out Loud’ may never leave your CD player. If you like bands like Marvelous 3, Cheap Trick, or London Calling you will DEFINITELY love Megaphone! If you're looking for a great album with real music, this CD is for you. Megaphone’s music is very enjoyable & the lyrics are honest. All the songs ROCK, and you can listen to the album over and over. Megaphone is a group to watch for as rising stars! Expect huge things from this band.- Tony Sison, ALL ACCESS MAGAZINE HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Tony Sison, aka The Atomic Chaser President, Dedicated Rocker Productions Home Of The Atomic Chaser's Rockers & Rollers Webzine http://atomicchaser.journalspace.com/ ALL ACCESS MAGAZINE, Contributing Writer

For Crying Out Loud is an awesome spin. Great songs, great production, and hooks hooks hooks! Let Go, Purple, Not Your Enemy, and Cutting Room Floor are stand out tracks that showcase their strength in writing and diversity. These guys are really tight and can rock like crazy. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.
