notes
Splashes of old wave, trip-hop, classic soul, country, and blues mingle with a heavy dose of 70's glam rock on Tod Kimbro's electrifying debut album. Chemical Spill's 11 tracks of sonic bliss recall a time when music was as big as the personalities who created it. The anthemic melodies and evocative lyrics call to mind some of the greats. There are shades of Elton and Elvis...Prince and Queen...Bowie and the Beatles.
There is no filler here.
This is addictive, unabashedly melodic rock n' roll.
Each song is a show stopper, worthy of obsessive multiple listens.
From the gospel-tinged twang of "Now I've Really Done It" and "Trucker Hat Blues."
...to the glammed-out grandeur of "Conspiracy..." and "Happiness."
From the funky, playful pop of "Loretta" and "...Chemistry".
...to the old-school soul balladry of "Pushover" and "Lay Back Down."
...And did we mention the edgy, electronica-laced splendor of "Suspicious Sunny Day," "Dragonbelly," and "The Pharmacist"?
This is an album of dazzling versatility from an exciting new songwriter and performer. Producer Justin Beckler surrounds Kimbro's driving piano and powerful vocals with a lush, eclectic soundscape.
"Kimbro is a terrific pianist and singer...a smooth, polished voice."
--The Orlando Sentinel

Delicous INtoxicating Chemicals
author: JasonThis CD is great. Once you get it make sure to listen to it a few times to let it grow on you, then be prepared to be addicted. The lyrics are amazing, production is great and Tod's performance is inspired. From glam rock to retro- new wave, this album mixes styles intelligently. The songs are catchy and will stick with you long after you stop listening.
