CD REVIEW V/A: Embrace The Sun

Band : Embrace The Sun
Album title : The Lion Music Japan Benefit Project
Label : Lion Music
Distributor : Bertus
Release Date :
Release : CD

It’s quite a shame really, that almost nobody besides the rock dedicated magazines and programs have given any notice when this album was released.  That ‘Lady Gaga’ or some other pop diva donated money for the victims of the earthquake followed by a tsunami, which in turn triggered a catastrophically problem in some nuclear centrals, that came into the news.  But that Lion Music released a double CD, for the benefit of the victims, was, to my knowledge never mentioned in any Belgian newspaper.
Since so many artist are on this album, the diversity of the songs is great.  So it’s hard to pick a favorite song, yet the over all quality is good.  It’s not as if the artists involved have used some leftover track to donate, since profits made on this record will be donated to the Japan Red Cross.
Not all bands are that well known, but some, or rather a lot of the contributing musicians are.

If you’re a rock fan, and want to do something to help the people in Japan, simply buy this album.

90/100
