Music reviews of Model Prisoner
Music Review: Love of my life
Rating: 5 Stars
Absolutly fell in love with Adam Pascal in his RENT performance. What a tallented musician. This is a great album for any Pascal fan or for any music lover. Original sound and quality musicianship. Not a single track I didn't love.
Description of Model Prisoner
After years spent in rock bands, Adam Pascal made his off-Broadway debut as Roger in "Rent," going on to win Obie and Theater World Awards plus Tony Award and Drama Desk nominations for his performance. He is currently starring on Broadway in Elton John and Tim Rice's "Aida." "Model Prisoner," his debut solo CD of original compositions, is a deeply personal album that is the culmination of years of work as a musician and as a writer. The album brings together Adam's roots in rock music with his passionate performance style. Songs: Liken a Razor, Just Here to the Left of You, Every Time Around, Model Prisoner, Which Way to Nowhere, Time It Takes to Fall, Ordinary Boy, Cellophane Sun, The One That Got Away, Precious Little Meltdown, Rhyme and Reason, 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
