Ken Domash CD Review

Definitely charge your batteries before listening to this rocky country album
Ken Domash is a singer/songwriter from St. Louis, Missouri. Ken made a name for himself playing at a local pub for several years before heading off to Nashville with his dream of recording an album. Ken’s style of country is thoroughly modern, very rocky and upbeat. Ken has a strong voice and a distinctive edgy sound. Ken’s influences come from all kinds of musical genres not just country. The album kicks off with the title track Countrified, an upbeat song with a catchy foot stomping vibe running through it. Ken’s vocal style reminds me of a cross between Richie McDonald and Collin Raye but with a rousing rocky twist. Countrified is Ken’s debut single on country radio. Ding Dang Darn It is a typical modern country song with Ken’s great vocal style bringing it to life. The second single to be released from the album. I Been There is a good quality rousing country song. Lie With Me is more of a ballad. This is a lovely song with laid back instrumentation and gentle vocals. She Drove is a bluesy rock/country song. This is an enjoyable song that deserves to be heard on country radio everywhere. Pull The Trigger is a very rock orientated country song. Saddle Up is another heavy song with a typical modern country/rock vibe running through it. It Doesn’t Matter allows Ken to show off his vocal skills. This is an extremely fast paced rock/country song. I am reminded here of some of Garth Brooks’ rocky/rodeo country songs. Push Me is a glorious song, the mood changes completely here. Suddenly the fast pace grinds to almost a sudden halt. A welcome breather some might say! Ken’s vocals slip effortlessly between rousing rocky fast paced songs and slow delicate ballads. Moonbeam is a charming country song. This song sees the pace picked up again but not to full throttle. Until The Pain’s All Gone is a rocky country song with some great lyrics. The final song is a slow ballad entitled Thank You. Once again Ken’s vocals are allowed to shine. If you like your country modern and rocky then this album is a must for you.
