Portland, Oregon must be proud. Besides being famous for their never ending rain, now the Beaver state has something else to brag about. Kevin and Anita Robinson, the husband and wife duo, of Viva Voce, make their hometown proud with their fourth album “Get Yr Blood Sucked Out.” The album title may sound harsh and vile, but it’s anything but that.
You’ll never get bored listening to this 12-track CD. Throughout the entire album, Anita proves she can play guitar just as good if not better than other female music notables like Sheryl Crow or Melissa Etheridge, while Kevin holds his own on the drums.
Somehow the band managed to bring this album together nicely, despite the fact that every song is different. The first track “Believer” has a country and folk beat while “Faster Than A Dead Horse” has a pop feel.
The only song you might fast forward through is “So Many Miles,” and not because it’s a bad song, but because it’s 8 ½ minutes long. No song should be that long.
Still, if you want to listen to something different and are a fan of this dynamic duo, then be sure to get this CD.
