CD Review: Adam Lambert - Acoustic Live!
- Quote :
The voice that America remembers from Season 8 of American Idol takes center stage on the new Adam Lambert Acoustic Live! EP, which was released via iTunes this week.

Bombast is one of Adam Lambert's biggest assets. He approaches every song with a ferocity that soars above most of today's pop stars.
Acoustic Live!, online today, brings the American Idol runner-up and recent Grammy nominee down a few notches. But his vocal prowess still anchors every song, which include fan-favorite nonsingles. (A limited run of physical copies on Lambert's website quickly sold out.) - Quote :
Adam Lambert's new "Acoustic Live!" EP is now available for purchase on iTunes, and after giving the album several listens there are plenty of kind things that can be said.
First of all, this is a pure acoustic album -- often when an artist chooses to release music under this label, they still choose to gloss it up with extra drums and computer effects. An acoustic album should sound minamalist, and it should present you with a sort of raw emotion that you don't see as much in studio recordings. - Quote :
Adam Lambert released his Acoustic Live! EP yesterday, Dec. 6, and unsurprisingly, the "stripped down" effort is a tour-de-force and shows off Lambert's preternatural, crystalline vocals against guitarist Monte Pittman's fancy fretwork.
The GRAMMY® nominee (now you knew I had to slip that in, right?) is featured on five live tracks: two recorded at radio station promo events, and three from Lambert's internationally successful Glam Nation tour. - Quote :
With its red, white & blue cover signifying his allegiance to the American Way, and the fingers of his hand helpfully pointing out that this is his second major release, former American Idol contestant Adam Lambert is back- - Quote :
Adam Lambert is undoubtedly one of the most interesting artists ever from reality TV.This singer's voice has shown uncommon during the eighth season of American Idol , refusing to compromise and always offering services worked very, vocally impeccable and the original staging.This obvious talent has attracted some of the most popular artists of the current scene of Lady Gaga in Pink via Matthew Bellamy of Muse , who wrote the tracks for his debut album, "For Your Entertainment. The album enjoyed great success around the world, but the main criticism one could make him was a production may be too slick, which makes the release of this EP sound even more interesting.
