I came home half a week ago, completely unsuspecting, and saw a giant envelope hanging out of the mailbox. Before I could even ask myself with a puzzled look where it came from, I saw it right away in the form of the sender's corner. RamTatTa. Oh dear, there's work to do that I didn't even order. Three CDs right away, which apparently no one wanted to discuss. Well, bring it on. I hardly have any time anyway, so why not review three releases from bands I've never heard of? First, I need to get a quick overview of what’s coming my way. Rehearsal room noise or studio recordings? Niche metal or 5-minute rock? When I put AIMEE CARES in the player as the second CD, my first impression is: Hmm, this leaves me cold, for example. At the same time, my ex-girlfriend (now wife) says: I like this! There we have it again, why we rarely go to concerts together. But what does this mean for the album by AIMEE CARES? Well, there is definitely agreement that there are ten songs on the album, averaging three and a half minutes long. I've listened to the CD a few times now. It’s cleanly produced and well-recorded alternative rock with a singer who somewhat reminds me of Skunk Anansie. Personally, I don't connect much with alternative rock. This album is certainly not bad for people who enjoy listening to the aforementioned Skunk Anansie. The singer can sing and does not exactly reach the highest vocal ranges, which should definitely appeal to fans of slightly deeper, not overly shrill female voices. Oh yes, she also plays the bass, by the way. The guys on the other instruments contribute their talent to create a multi-layered and powerful soundscape that knows how to keep the listener engaged in its softer moments with small but fine synthesizer embellishments. For fans of Skunk Anansie or Die Happy, I definitely see no reason not to engage with this album. 5 points from me. Probably more from my wife.
