Number One Gun - To The Secrets And Knowledge

I’ll try not to be too cliche, but ‘To The Secrets And Knowledge’ is both a familiar and a fresh take on the almost 8 year old band, all at the same time. Familiar in the sense that existing fans won’t really be surprised by anything on the record, but new in that it feels like Jeff Schneeweis is really embracing being the sole member for the recording of these songs.

Even though a lot of the stylistic choices which separate this album [and the last] from the rest of Number One Gun’s discography seem to be ones based on circumstance, the occasional electronic elements, or sound fillers, don’t distract from the great music. “Noises” should be a track able to grab your attention right away and is a refreshing change for the band, while the cover of “Don’t Stop Believing” is not bad if not simply a played out song choice. Keep your eyes on this album

Have you checked out the new material from Number One Gun? Be sure because the new record drops this week coming up and it’s got some good stuff.

Number One Gun proves that rock is something that comes natural as ‘The North Pole Project’ delivers on any hope you had for this album.

Pop-rock that is tight and littered with reasons to keep the record on repeat. Not much else to say other than a solid release from a “band” that has always released solid material.
