I wanna rock! Steve Lieberman the Gangsta Rabbi...

I have found one of the places to find new music is on Myspace. There is a lot of good stuff on there.. I highly recommend giving it a whirl.


One musician that I've found on Myspace (who is actually friendly and answers his messages, like a friend instead of being aloof like most bands on there tend to be) is Steve Lieberman the Gangsta Rabbi. His music is different from the mainstream.. and what makes it so special is HE plays all the instruments.


It's hard for me to put into words exactly what his music reminds me of.. he lists the following bands as his influences:JETHRO TULL,MOTORHEAD CLASH, SEX PISTOLS, MONKS,13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS,FLOGGING MOLLY, GREEN DAY.. but he's really a sound all of his own. His music makes you want to get up and move, much like the techno music they play in clubs. All I can really say, is go take a listen to his music. It's the only way you'll be able to understand what I'm saying.


I was lucky enough to be sent a copy of his album Melancholia Falling. It's a good album.. one song in particular that I keep going back to is "The Beat of My Funeral Drum". I shared this song with a friend of mine who has a varied taste in music like myself and while he wasn't blown away he was impressed. The music is catchy, and Steve's voice draws you in.


In all fairness, I will say that his music isn't for everyone. If you're close minded or dislike loud music.. don't bother to go to his link. If you're open minded, like loud music, and want something that isn't what everyone else is listening to.. I strongly suggest going to his Myspace page. A bonus for listening to his music is if you message him, he'll message you back. He actually CARES about his fans. It's refreshing to see a musician of his talent that takes time to communicate with his fans.

Anyhow.. go check him out, I promise you won't be disappointed.
