Avalon

“Reborn”

E1 Entertainment

Grade – A

The title “Reborn” can mean many things in this instance it’s the rebirth of our faith or the rebirth of a passion.  For Avalon, it could also be the groups passion for great music.  The new Avalon album is a refreshing new rendition of a time-honored vocal group.  It’s like the group has recharged their musical batteries.

“Reborn” is more progressive than their usual style with a much bigger sound, but still with their familiar uplifting lyrics and spectacular harmonies.  I also noticed that the sound is more authentic and band orientated.  A lot less strings that soften up a song (to the point of weakening it) and make it harder to reproduce in a concert venue.   I imagine that when Avalon takes this on the road it’s going to be impressive.

Having more of a leaning towards the rock genre, I was truly impressed with the reborn Avalon.  The group has certainly stepped outside of their comfort zone and you can read about it all on their official web site http://avalonlive.com.  While you’re there take in a few samples of the new music.
