Music reviews of Model Prisoner

Music Review: Adam's Talent Shines in "Model Prisoner"
Rating: 4 Stars

Adam has picked a great time to release his solo album titled "Model Prisoner". The opening of AIDA seemed perfect to release some of Adam's own material. Adam is a member of Sh-k-boom records, which is a small label working to bridge the gap between pop music and musical theater. Adam's co-star, Sherie Rene Scott, also has released a CD on this label. The CD consists of 12 songs written and sung by Adam Pascal. 1. liken a razor : a quiet beginning with an "Adam Pascal punch" suprise. 2. just here to the left of you : hip and catchy. This one could do well on the radio. A very energetic song. 3. every time around : soft and sweet. 4. model prisoner : a catchy beat. Adam seems to play around with his voice in this one. 5. which way to nowhere : slow and varied. This song has a relaxing power. Very Asian sounding with a great Cello solo. 6. the time it takes to fall : very country sounding, and a comforting song. 7. ordinary boy : a pure Adam Pascal song filled with energy and power. 8. cellophane sun : A bit of western sounding but with Adam's voice. 9. the one that got away : Very Western sounding with good harmonica background. 10. precious little meltdown : very rock, almost Billy Joel sounding. 11. rhyme and reason : sweet and comforting. 12. undiscovered : here background vocals can be heard by Adam's co-star, Sherie Rene Scott. This is another sweet sounding song. Well, Adam does a great job here with his first solo album. You can really sense the influence of all his inspirations like Iron Maiden,Queensryche,Elton John, and Billy Joel. A different Adam Pascal may be heard on Musical Soundtracks such as RENT and AIDA. the variety of music found on this CD really shows Adam's huge scope of music. I also recommend anything by Chris Cornell (Soundgarden) and Elton John. Also check out Sherie Rene Scott's CD "Men I've Had..." you can visit the website at www.adampascal.net

Description of Model Prisoner

The songs on "Model Prisoner" express the joy and pain of love and relationships. "Model Prisoner" was created at a time in Adams life when he was feeling lost between the theater world and rock music world. The album demonstrates Adams talent as both a singer and a storyteller. Borne out of his influences including Iron Maiden, Queensryche, Pink Floyd, The Beatles and Billy Joel. Adams musical heritage is most evident on tracks like the classic rocker "Liken A Razor", the southern-fried "The One That Got Away," the rock anthem "Which Way To Nowhere," and the heavily textured "Undiscovered".
Although he's described playing the role of Roger as a mere "stepping stone," Adam Pascal made it to the cover of Newsweek thanks to his part in the Rent phenomenon--and the dramatic edge he brought to his doomed character. While he's continued his work in musical theater with the blockbuster Elton John/Tim Rice show Aida, Pascal returns to his roots as a rock singer on Model Prisoner. His debut solo CD--with backing from Saturday Night Live alumni band members--comes out on Internet-based Sh-K-Boom Records, a label interested in bridging the musical theater-pop music gap for a hip young audience. In fact, Pascal's pre-Rent years were spent fronting a band called Mute; the singer's brand of raw energy makes it clear he's spent a lot of time admiring the likes of Axl Rose and Queensryche. No doubt that the rough passion of his delivery goes some way toward compensating for the repeatedly formulaic quality of his tunes (Pascal wrote 10 of the album's 12 songs)--which can range from leftover hair-metal choruses to dirty-blues-framed laments. But what always comes through is the unmistakable intensity of Pascal's voice, and its ability to shift and shade the moods being expressed. Pascal may be at a crossroads, but he's determined not to be held prisoner by the patterns his fame has cut out so far. --Thomas May
