Synopsis

Album Description

The Alternate Routes return with their rock and roll grit, ghostly balladry and seasoned guitar rock anthems on their new sophomore release, A Sucker's Dream. Loosely based around a handful of themes--fortifying faith through adversity, holding onto hope as the dark horse--A Sucker's Dream builds on the gorgeous, melodic compositional work of the band's earlier works by adding decibels, power, vision and substantive ornamentation.

CD Reviews

Music's Best Kept Secret

F. de Jong | Austin, TX, USA | 02/26/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Following up their superb first album "Good, Reckless and True", "A Sucker's Dream" is a stellar and solid mix of beautiful ballads and earthy rock melodies. Tim Warren's voice holds an emotional presence that articulates sincerity. I can not pick out any favourite song in particular as they are all worthy of a special mention. This album consists of perfect lazy afternoon tunes as well as songs with catchy, upbeat melodies. I can not stress enough how worthy this album is of your collection. The Alternate Routes are music's best kept secret.

Another great album from The Alternate Routes

S. Johnson | Gainesville, VA United States | 03/06/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've had this CD in my car for a week now and it just gets better and better. The songs are great, and I often find myself singing the choruses as I walk around. Woke up this morning singing parts of "Ain't no secret." And wait til you see them in concert. "The Future is Nothing New" features a toolbox as a percussion instrument. It sounds good on the CD but the crowd goes wild when they play it on stage. If you like good rock music, you'll love The Alternate Routes."
