Comments on: Living Colour: An interview with singer Corey Glover http://exploremusic.com/interview/living-colour-an-interview-with-singer-corey-glover/ THE place for Music Discovery Wed, 16 May 2012 21:14:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Grant Edson http://exploremusic.com/interview/living-colour-an-interview-with-singer-corey-glover/#comment-3072 Grant Edson Fri, 18 Dec 2009 13:38:33 +0000 http://exploremusic.com/interview/living-colour-an-interview-with-singer-corey-glover/#comment-3072 Good interview, could have read more of that. I'm a huge Living Colour fan. The new album is superb particularly I think from a lyrical viewpoint (in that it really resonated with me) and Corey's performance. Was great seeing them play these new songs too as one thing that people should know about LC is that they expand so much more live on the songs. They jam songs out and really are a joy to watch for any fan of music, not just rock, metal, funk etc. Their musicianship is second to none, as well as their technology and the flair they incorporate with it. They're so natural with each other. And Corey is no exception to this, as his voice is ridiculously versatile, going from sweet and soulful to angry sometimes within the same song and the power to project over such a wall of sound in his band. They've all got the chops and humour to keep it fresh as I've never seen them play a song the same way twice. Corey gets it spot on though, the key to them not being as 'popular' as they should be is down to their versatility which is a shame as it is their strength. I think most fans of the band would agree that they like an ecletic mix and dont want to hear just one thing from them and this is probably because they have, like me, a wide variety of taste when it comes to music. Im just glad to be part of the minority who know about this great band and can only hope people check them out when I say they are my favourite band. Grant Good interview, could have read more of that.
