Search - Michael Knott :: Fluid

Great storytelling

"Reads like a book and sounds like an intimate conversation. Michael Knott was at the top of his game in the mid-nineties and still puts out great music. Sadly underappreciated, but even Van Gogh wasn't loved in his time. A rare talent."

Fluid reeks of Honesty

"You can't tell me that their isn't just something about Michael Knott,that you have to like no matter how you feel about his image.This guy puts his heart and soul into his craft. You haven to appreciate that on some kind of level.



This album took a little longer then usual for me to really get into. But it's well worth the time invested. This album is a rock opera of sorts. Which is nothing new for Mike. He has always been good at this kind of thing. Some might consider this a down album. But I would argue this one holds it's own among many of his catalog picks.



"Fluid" is another album of Mike's that isn't flashy but reeks of honesty. The opener "Crash" is kind of catchy but nothing that holds my attention. Now the next song "Cool" is completely opposite. The main guitar riff is stellar. I was instantly hooked and then came the chorus. I then knew I was inside

of a great rock song. The chorus is simple yet riveting. Unfortunately this is by far the best rocker on disc. Many of the songs give off a nice old school vibe. "Tonight" one of the bright shining ballads carries that scent. On this one, Michael reaches out for his savior's approval and acceptance "Somewhere" the slow broken hearted tough guy ballad isstriking , you can't help but feel sorry for the girl Michael is singing about.



There are a few songs I am not to fond of. I still enjoyed everything else enough to be happy holding onto this rare one, for future spins."
