I found a “brand new kind of love” for ABM’s debut Self-Titled album!  This Louisiana band is fantastic!  Another Big Machine is comprised of Justin McCoy (lead vocals), D White (guitar), Dane Carmouche (bass and vocals), and Lynn Boudreaux (drums).For their debut album, they have produced exactly what I had expected since interviewing them several months back.   

Let’s just face it, these guys can really rock out! There is fluidity throughout the lyrics, harmonies that perfectly sync together, and just an overall togetherness within their sound.  Off the bat you can rely on the lead singer’s clean, crisp, and concise voice and can see his passion or better yet their passion for the music that is being produced.  The upbeat peppy lyrics back up the cross of emotions encountered throughout the album ranging from new found love all the way down to anger.  Just the overall quality of the album alone is amazing.   I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, watch out for this group they definitely have what it takes to give some of these top bands quite a run for their money!  To get a better idea of what kind of music ABM sounds like I would compare them to Lifehouse or Matchbox 20.  Have a listen, although I don’t doubt you will like what you hear!
