Great new texas rock musician!
author: Miguel Plaza
This Cd sounds good and remember me to great british rock musicians like Steve Marriot and Paul Rodgers (in Free and Bad Company period) made by Mark, specially in the Straight Ahead Human and Mutual Destruction tunes (this last one are the best for me). On the other hand, its sounds is some progressive (and very original) and has very delicious guitar heavy riffs and fantastic drums and bass players in all of album.
The production, music lyrics, quality sound and its originality are the best!
Really congratulations for all of their band members and others people ( like piano musician colaboraion ) that made possible this album!

Mark Campbell's masterpiece work, true to himself, real rock.

The songs are real and are not only arranged intelligently but executed masterfully by an artist who has paid his dues for years and all we have to do to is slide the plastic disc into a player and turn up the volume and let the power come over you. This collection of original songs can get you motivated as they are hard driving and rocking. I applaud this stellar effort

First-rate effort from an obscure master
author: Jon White
Mark Campbell and the various incarnations of Soulshaker have been laboring in relative obscurity for too long. "Straight Ahead Human" is great music that deserves a wider audience. Mark's vocals and guitar work remain in top form, while the compositions and production are better than ever. A 70's rock influence is evident throughout, but the overall feel is fresh rather than derivative.
