Fractured Poetry Shakes The Philly Scene!
Our new album, FRACTURED POETRY, had it's worldwide release in August/September. We are thrilled with the reviews and responses we've received from both critics and our loyal fans in the early going. MY GIRLFRIEND LIED is one of the early favorites. Here are just a few reviews from critics and fans:
"Musically this album is a joy to listen to....I followed the lyrics with the enclosed booklet, and again I'm amazed at the depth of your words. I'm so thankful I discovered the Gypsys, and truly hope this isn't your last album. Keep writing and making beautiful music, your talent should be heard and shared." JY (Norristown, Pa)
"Just writing to tell you that I think your new album is brilliant. Unlike a lot new music I have heard, this work is worthy of multiple listens instead of one and done. What impressed me is using great songs, with lyrics that actually speak to the listener with something to think about. There is no bashing of the same old chords. The vocals are wonderful! Truly a great piece of work. Hopefully you will have the chance to play this material live!" GL (Philadelphia, Pa)
" This music (to our ears) evokes classic American rock, like Springsteen, or the Afghan Whigs (Tony's voice) and is well-played and produced throughout. The song list - from ballads through upbeat pop to genuine rock wig-outs - bowls along with some great hooks and choruses. The sounds used really tickled our '70s sensibilities, (a real issue for us!), the arrangements were always interesting and the playing excellent There are no weak tunes in this collection, but a few particularly appealed to us, including Fun House - a terrific start to the album that really evoked the Afghan Whigs for us; Terrifying Lies - with its wonderful minor chord progression; Fall Fade and Forget - with its rocking groove and, finally, The Dark Side of Love - a great closer. We would recommend to anyone, who enjoys good quality American rock music, to track this down" J&B K. (Perth, U.K.)
"I Love It! I put the CD into my iTunes and loaded it on my phone so I can listen to it wherever I am. Fractured Poetry and Terrifying Lies are probably my favorite at this point, but I don’t skip any tracks when I listen to them. Great work!" JD
