CD Review    Max Cady - Tonight Alive


Max Cady - Tonight Alive
After the band was formed in March, 2003, Max Cady fans had to wait a year and a half for the band's first full length CD, Tonight Alive , to be released. It was well worth the wait. Made up of members of former Dallas bands, singer/guitarist Justin Moore, guitarist Jeff Biehler, bassist Pablo Xiques, and drummer Rob Grijalva, Max Cady is nothing but rock. The 12-song Tonight Alive demonstrates this perfectly, as throughout the CD Xiques and Grijalva lay down a hard, fast beat that backs up the growling guitar riffs of Biehler and Moore, and sets up Moore's gritty, in-your-face vocals. Each song is different enough that you don't feel like you're listening to the same song over and over again, but yet after just a few seconds of each song you already know that you're in for four minutes of rock as it was meant to be played. As Justin Moore says, "In the beginning, we set out to play loud, fast rock-n-roll and that's exactly what we're doing…and will continue to do."
