Customer reviews of The Factory

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Fun band to spend a night with-great music...
Comment: The CD, "The Factory," premiered at te Grandfather Mountain Highland Games on July, 8, 1999.
.........Produced by Eric Gast and mastered by Emily Lazar, The Factory, features nine new original songs including Twelve, This Season and Factory Song, two new instrumental sets and the "trippiest" version of Amazing Grace ever recorded.
***Florida based Celtic rockers Seven Nations have been a foundational force in Celtic Grove's playlist since the beginning. Originally called Clan Na Gael, the band got started playing a circuit of Irish Pubs and Scottish Highland Games along the Eastern Seaboard in 1994. Seven Nations success as an independant band is nearly unprecendented. As of early 2000, the band had sold more than 100,000 copies of their recordings, a huge amount for an unsigned band. Seven Nations have a very dedicated group of fans who follow them around Grateful Dead style from one festival to the next. The large number of fan sites, clubs and sell-out crowds that have become associated with them over a period of more than 6 years are a testimony to their enduring appeal. Commercial success has not come to Seven Nations at the expense of their art. The band have been asked to play at some very exclusive venues and were the first rock and roll group ever invited to perform at the historic Bannockburn Memorial in Scotland.

Summary: Very good but could have been a monster
Comment: First off, I have to agree with everyone that this band is best heard live. They have never produced a studio album that can compare with their live show. If you ever get the chance, go see them! That being said, this cd left me feeling somewhat confused. There is so much on here that could have put them over the top but for some reason it just didn't quite cut it. Listen to the ballad "Sweet Orphan". That song could have been a major hit but the vocals just don't fit the song. Then there is #7, N.O.T. (I Want My People Back). This song seems to be a rather poor attempt at a pop hit song and it fails miserably. The rest of the cd is very good and some of it borders on greatness! Calvin Crozier, Twelve, and Mother Mary are fantastic songs that belong in anyones Celtic library. One of these days this band will put out their magnum opus but this one, while somewhat close, is not it.

Summary: First CD I bought after seeing them Live.
Comment: I first saw this band in the summer of 2000 at Irish Fest in Milwaukee, Wisconsin... twice. They blew me away. This is the CD I bought there at the Summerfest grounds, because it had the most songs that I remembered from the performance. They even autographed the inside of the cover for me! I've nearly worn this CD out, and even my parents (hard-core Celtic music fans), like it. I especially enjoy, the Factory Song, the Ballad of Calvin Crozier and Twelve, but everything grows on you. I love their sound. I saw them again at Irish Fest this year, and their live shows never disappoint. Hail to the Milwaukee Irish Fest "Arse-kickers" in the downpour!

Summary: A magickal marriage
Comment: A magickal marriage of highland tradition and stomp-your-feet-while-thrashing-your-head-about (looking like Angus Young) rock

Editorial Reviews:
|
The Factory is the most diverse cd ever released by this Florida-based Celtic rock quintet. The tunes ont his disc run the gamut of rock, pop, country, celtic, and hip-hop. Composed primarily of original tunes, lead singer Kirk McLeod's expert songwriting and soft vocals deliver an unforgettable punch. The title track, "The Factory Song," is an anthem for the working world with it's raucous guitar and swooping pipes. Don't miss the equally dramatic ballads "Twelve" and "Sweet Orphan" as well as the pub stomping "The Paddy Set." Nothing about this disc is ordinary, but it will quickly become the frequently played and familiar recording in your library. Order two copies...just in case.
