Album Notes

Christian Collin and Molasses' self-titled debut combines modern rock sensibilities with the soul of traditional blues to create an exciting mixture of original material. Fronted by singer-songwriter-guitarist Christian Collin and featuring harmonica ace Michael Casey, Molasses is a truly unique and authentic rock n' roll band in this era of generic alternative rock. You won't find any drum machines or sequencers, sampling, slick vocal harmonies or orchestrated strings here. This music is pure and unadulterated---loud guitars, in your face vocals, raw harmonica solos, and pounding drums and bass. Did we forget to mention strong songwriting as well? The band's musical focus reflects intelligent lyrics, strong hooks and inspired instrumentation. Having recieved a number of rave reviews for their debut album, Chicago based Molasses is hard at work honing their musical skills and impressing audiences along the way. Their energy is intense and their rhythmic sensibilities are addictive. Check it out as soon as you get a chance!
