Genuine Blues with Overwhelming Emotion
Robbie | Washington D.C. | 04/25/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Entrance, real name Guy Blakeslee, is a rock prodigy and the most genuine artist since I can't remember when. His music is influenced by the old delta blues, such as Robert Johnson, but unlike other artists who simply try to imitate older music, Entrance keeps his influences in the back of his mind and lets his soul write the music. All the raw emotion packed into his tracks explodes from the radio and will overwhelm you. I would relate Entrance and his style, retro lyrics, and original guitar playing to that of the White Stripes. But, to be frank, Entrance blows Jack White out of the water. Entrance is who Jack White wants to be, tries to be, but never will be; he is a better, more innovative guitar player, better, more genuine songwriter, and has a much better voice than Jack's by far. This record is a must for anybody into the new rock scene of the Strokes, the White Stripes, and Yeah Yeah Yeahs and for those into classic rock and blues. Also, although the album is great it is nothing compared to Entrance's live performances, so an Entrance show is a must-see. Enjoy."
Realer Than Real
Daniel Kaproth | St. Cloud, MN | 04/15/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In an age of rock/blues revivalists such as the White Stripes, Entrance is like a breath of fresh air between so much that is artificial. From the beautiful yet bewildering opener of "Valium Blues," to the irreverent cover of Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues," (here renamed to "Tommy Thumb's Summertime Blues,) this album is brooding with a mix of raw emotions.
With vocals that fall between Jeff Buckley and an all night speed binge, and some of the most original guitar work heard in years, 'The Kingdom of Heaven...' may not be an instant classic, but will surely be appreciated for years to come."
