CD Reviews

Undeservedly Obscure

James Carragher | New York | 05/24/2006

(4 out of 5 stars)

"With the exception of Tornado Weather, which seems to drone on for far longer than 4:32, The Blacklight Trap is another excellent album by Milton Mapes, a band that deserves a bigger audience and a much higher national profile. As on Westernaire, I like the ballads best here, especially Bowie AZ and Craters of the Moon, a simply beautiful love song. Nothing on the CD rocks, but even as the songs are slow, the band can get a little noisy and that is welcome on the first two cuts and the Rudyard Kipling reference, When the Earth's Last Picture is Painted. In the interest of full disclosure, while it doesn't bother me, band leader Greg Vanderpool has a nasal vocal style that may grate on some ears.

If you like alt-country, Texas music, but haven't heard of Milton Mapes, they are definitely worth an impulse purchase."

Great New Sound

"If you looking for something new, this is it! Great instrumentals and vocals, and great songs that are entertaining to listen to. I really enjoyed this cd and think it is their best so far. Hope to see them come out with more."
