I always enjoy some well placed voice samples within a recording, I suppose I have built a career using the same approach. Commonly voice samples tend to be found within electronic music, so it was interesting to hear The Galley Project's 'The Cautionary Power'; as the technique is applied throughout a rock track.
Actually, it is super-charged rock, with the instrumentation built around frenetic drums and heavy guitars, occasionally even feeling a touch bluesy. Like a sub-three minute burn-out, the tune rips along with great energy; the vintage voice drops providing substance in an attempt to remind us that "the struggles we face today (militarism, division, and short-sighted thinking) were already being called out generations ago. The song connects past warnings to our present reality".
The Galley Project is a one-man band from Canada making "instrumental music you can groove to in the background of whatever life has to offer".
'The Cautionary Power' appears on the recent album 'Insignificant', however, I would suggest that is best experienced with the full video.
