Re: Brett Hestla
well, I want Myles' voice to last, and, with songs like "Save Me", "Summergirl", "12/31", "Find The Real", and so forth, Myles has nothing left to prove in terms of his mastery over the upper register, as he has exhibited a control and sustain of the higher register that no other rock singer has in the last 15 years (other than Buckley)...and, as much as I like FTR and SM, my favorite songs on the album are SMS, DTML, and ODR, and he's not REALLY pushing himself on those songs, so, if I were to get a whole album of stuff like that next time, I would be totally happy (I DO love FTR, though)...plus, if he were to take it down a notch for the next album, that would leave room for him to throw in some improvised screams and howls live, anyway...
back to Brett, though, I love Brett's lyrics...I was listening to his Virgos stuff today, and the lyrics to "Gain" are really clever...
