Press Reviews Semifinalists of the contest Top of the Tree III and IV in 2001 and 2002 and this August's Atlanta representative of Lexington, Kentucky's 2002 Midwest Music Conference, The Likes of Which brings their lushly textured, melodic, and passionate sound to their fans once again, this time by request. Many of their listeners at recent shows wished to hear the tune, "All I Want to Do is Kill You" in cd form. Because of their appreciation to the fan base that has always stayed beside them, The Likes of Which went ahead and put together their second EP, The Kill You Ep. The group from Atlanta consists of bassist and lead singer Jason A. Brown, whose delivery is filled with raw emotional power and passionate energy. Chris Bono feeds off Brown's electricity with charging and pulsating guitar crunches, with a variety of effects, distortion and chorus sounds. Matthew Smith adds greater dynamics and intensity on second guitar, with Jason Pickens providing resonance and percussive furry on the drums. The overall feeling and vibe of the EP is one of passion, flair and the music and lyrics delivered is by far creative and innovative. Their influences of British rock, Pink Floyd and Radiohead can be heard in much of the material. Stick around, this bunch from Atlanta has a superb future, and if a feature album is on the way, with their talent and ability, the result should be promising. The melodic and emotional single "Carrie" is currently featured on the "Dewar's Rocks" compilation cd pitched at the 2002 Atlantis Music Festival. Southeastern Performer, October 2002 Shawn M. Haney
