Love Stories & Other Musings

Candlebox

Polished, soulful rock that trades 90s angst for mid-career melodicism. A warm blend of bluesy guitar work and Kevin Martin's signature raspy delivery.

A seasoned and soulful rock record that balances veteran grit with a surprisingly bright, melodic outlook.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition into the chorus of Youth in Revolt where the veteran rhythm section locks into a heavy groove.
The soulful, blues-inflected guitar solo in She Come Over Me that showcases a technical fluidity missing from their earlier angst.
The patient, atmospheric build of the six-minute closer Change, which trades grunge grit for a more expansive, cinematic rock sound.
