review from SMASH
Eve's Burden
"THE BLACK LETTER"
Eve's Burden has enough of an edge and a style that is inviting that I had to give it a go after an invite to check the group out at one of the stations I have I had to listen a few times through before giving this one the nod here at SMASH. I do like the groups unique acoustic-electric meld , they offer up a sweeping rush of energy and have some great change-ups and hooks happening. This song is well written and maintains a solid well woven tapestry of music and lyrics which is lacking in many bands in this day and age. Eve's Burdens musicians are well seasoned and it shows in this production and song crafting, yet they have a freshness that is dovetailed nicely in the music they provide THE INTRO A nice acoustic intro with just vocals and an acoustic guitar, (with a few little electronic wizardry shots that perk your ears up) and Sharon teases you up just enough to draw you in to the songs beginning with her subtle yet crafty approach. Afterwards Sharon rocks it and hammers the lyrics out . Great backing band and bgs. Also there are some nicely appointed quiet transitions that give you some time to digest the song and again here it comes at you, that great hook line Sharon lays it out loud and clear "There's a letter hanging on my door" and away she goes letting it all hang out , Yes she has the chops to make an impact here at IAC and anywhere else, looking for more soon SMASH OUT
