Delivering twelve tracks worth of deeply harmonic and engaging music that ably blends elements of twangy country, rootsy folk, and rousing rock into one hell of a rich, tasty, and arresting sonic stew, this album certainly hits the stirring and melodic spot somethin' sweet. The nasal and reedy, yet pleasant and affecting vocals convey emotion with exquisite clarity and galvanizing vitality. The arrangements keep things tuneful and hoppin' throughout. The smart and thoughtful songwriting likewise impresses with it's strong sense of economy and refreshing dearth of sappy sentiment. Best of all, there's a real sweet warmth and glowing humanity that rings through loud and clear in every last radiant note. A lovely and touching slice of pure heartfelt Americana. Joe Wawrzyniak - Jersey Beat "There are bands that have a timeless quality to their music, and there are bands that are clearly tethered to a certain generation. The Redemption Center is a band that strikes a balance between the two, being both timeless and timely. The music, a mix between the jangle pop of the Gin Blossoms and country twang of Ryan Adams, makes for interesting results on Land of Plenty. " Eric Farwell, The Aquarian Weekly 'The new record 'Land Of Plenty' is an instantly engaging blend of gritty hooks, intelligent lyrics and heartfelt vocals. Smith's soulful song-craft is a great addition to the roots rock world and fans of Steve Earle and the Vigilantes Of Love are sure to be pleased. ' Nick Young - Burning Daylight (Jun 17, 2010) 'The Redemption Center breathes new vitality into 'Heartland Rock', aided by effective and lively playing which sustains the intensity that the form requires. Add to this some compelling and sneakily uplifting lyrics delivered with a distinctive voice that oozes personality and you get music that you'll want to go back to again and again. ' 'Nice work, and no surprise. I'm already a fan of 'The Boy Who Shed His Skin', a song that can easily stand comparison with the work of Mark Heard or T-Bone Burnett!The lyrics are thoughtful and manage to be complex without being unwieldy. ' Songwriter - Melbourne, Australia - DC Cardwell (Jan 5, 2010) 'An amalgam of rock, gospel, roots and folk. Rural but not Country. Lyrically intelligent, musically relevant. Looking ahead while tipping the hat to earlier influences. This music would fit comfortable in the Americana genre, if not for the pop and rock seasoning. ' The Blind Armadillo (Sep 4, 2009)
