I found a disconnect with Rick Rocker. The name
sounds cheesy, as if it's meant for a parody of an '80s DJ. The page statements
about instant anthems seems to continue with that.
That led me to go in with lowered expectations, but
I found the music enjoyable, sincere, and in the case of "Into Your
Arms" absolutely beautiful. The guitar is pretty well-executed too,
especially on "Lady In Red".
Music videos have a little bit of that cheese as
well - "Say What I Say" gives us a day of frolicking at Coney Island
and more cowbell - but they appear to come from an honestly good-hearted person
who is good at music.
Rocker has lived in New York City all of his life, so
maybe the positivity is his way of rebelling. I think what he is doing works.
