notes

The vocals of Jakob Dylan and Jim Morrison meet the acoustic side of "GN'R Lies". The result is an intimate, slow-burning rock sound reminiscent of R.E.M.'s more serious moments. "Firstborn", the self-released debut from Tribes of Revolt, is a refreshing departure from anything close to the norm. The songs are more in the rock category. The music alternately (and sometimes simultaneously) features high voltage electric guitars and layers of acoustic overtones. The sparse bass and drums recall indie rock or metal, without ever fully committing to either. Several of the tunes hint at radio-friendly song-craft, but are always offset by some dark twist or dissonant juxtaposition. The hit here is "Blood From a Leech", an angst-fueled anthem in the vein of Bob Dylan's "Positively 4th Street" with a Soundgarden-style arrangement. The finer moments also include the guitar-driven ballad "Dawn of a New Day", the high-octane power of "The Damage Undone", and the stark "From the Grave", the latter being augmented by angelic female vocals. Tribes of Revolt blend a wide range of influences into an otherworldly style of dense, acoustic-driven modern rock.

  • Edgy acoustic soundscape
    author: Donna

    This album creates an edgy, melancholic soundscape. It doesn't really sound like anything else, but once you start listen it takes you into a world of its own.

  • Awesome cd to add to your collection!
    author: Jason

    This cd is a blend of many different styles and keeps you interested for more. I hope to hear more from Tribes of Revolt!

  • Wonderful and diverse
    author: Chris

    I heard the songs online and fell in love with the sound. The overall vibe is mellow, but there is something to fit any mood. The lyrical message is solid, which is a nice change of pace from most music these days.

  • Great acoustic sound!
    author: Cheryl

    I love the acoustic guitars and the intense lyrics. This cd hints at a lot of styles of music, but they all blend together to form "Tribes of Revolt".
