REVIEW: Dawn Over Zero’s – Unity and Division

FIRST, I want to tell you that you can get Dawn Over Zero’s latest Album, “Unity and Division”, here - http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/dawnoverzero4 - and I would suggest you do it.  As soon as you can!  We have already played several of the tracks on the show and will be bringing you the rest of the album and a review of the album on the show soon, but I wanted to write this review, because this album deserves all the attention it can get!

Dawn Over Zero (DOZ) is a band that, from the first time I saw and heard them, I knew I would never look at music the same.  Their sound is unique and familiar at the same time.  This band is what rock music is all about; the song writing, lyrics and performances will all leave you blown away.  When the single “Carry Me Home” from this newest album was released I was literally giddy. I had been eagerly awaiting new music from DOZ, since their self titled EP had left me completely rocked and wanting more!

Unity and Division sets a new standard in Rock.  From start to finish – it is a 10 track, 38 minute, feast for the rock beast inside you!  While the obvious places to start listening might be the previously mentioned single “Carry Me Home” or the AMAZING cover of  Johnny Hates Jazz’s ‘Shattered Dreams’ (which is fucking GENIUS, by the way); I would urge you to take in this album from Track 1 to 10, because every track holds something sensational!  From the hard rock sounds of “The Obvious”, “Carry Me Home” and “Caricatures” to the smooth, amazing sound of “Sound of Goodbye”, Unity and Division is an album that you can listen to, all the way through, over and over again!

My favorite track from DOZ’s latest effort is “Give and Take”, it is a killer tune with a hard but fun feel to it… if that song doesn’t get your head bobbing then you have no soul!  All in all, Unity and Division is as solid an album as I have heard in a long time… not since alternative rock’s glory days in the early 90′s can I remember enjoying an entire album this much. Get the album and then go see these guys live, it’s like a party with all your best friends and one helluva show!

Dawn Over Zero is:

Mike Mears: Vocals, Guitars
Mack Linan: Drums
Steven Abbenante: Guitar
Jonathan Boyce: Bass, Vocals

WBR #102 – Welfare & Vagina

Hey, folks… here’s a quickie to get you off! I play some KILLER tunes from Dawn Over Zero‘s new album Unity and Division… pick up the CD here – www.cdbaby.com/dawnoverzero4.  Besides some AMAZING music I show you examples of the stupidity plaguing the welfare system and I tell some dirty jokes.  I also go on several tangents and quickly end the show before my voices kills me!  Enjoy…

In the Premium section of the show I run down a list of reasons that Men cheat on Women and go into DEPTH on how Women should keep their men happy and why!  If you want to be able to get the full show each week head over to www.jasonoblivion.com and become a subscriber to the FCC club!
