Band Review: Ages Apart


Ages Apart is an alternative, active rock band from Alabama.

While it is definitely not country, I do hear the Southern influence, but with a generally heavier sound than Southern rock. If you have ever found yourself wishing that Daughtry or Cristian Kane had been more influenced by Metallica, Ages Apart may hit your sweet spot.

One of the most striking things about the music for me was a sense of assurance. I suspect that this is helped both by the guidance of producer Travis Wyrick and singer Cody Webb's own production experience. The music has a strong sense of direction and accomplishes its goals.

"Where Do We Go" is a good introductory track for conveying the strength and power of the group, but the softer side of "Victim" stayed with me more.

While there is currently no video content available, the band's pages look really good, with reasonable levels of content, so I suspect the Youtube channel will not be empty long.
