Formed in 1997, Chicago based Rock band Soil rose and took over that particular scene. After their first independent release, the band was the first rock group signed by the legendary Clive Davis to J Records. The band achieved mainstream success with their major label debut "Scars" in 2001. The band did have some trouble with their line up until reuniting with their original vocalist Ryan McCombs in October 2011.
Anyway, the band is back and just released a new record (entitled “Whole”) halfway last month. Now I did used to listen to these chaps a long time ago when their single “pride” came out and I just loved that. Now all these years later they come back with a rather generic rock album, almost a bit to typical for the genre.
But being as typical as can be, it still rocks. Good solid (but typical) rock music. So you can’t go wrong with this one.
