  1. The beauty of an album like Don't Let The Sun is that in between the rickety monuments to group songwriting, there is a simple and subtle message of camaraderie.

    Each song is filled with extremely personal yet intensely relatable lyrics as band leader Joe Michelini's rough voice sings about alcoholism or wanting what he can't have, creating a palpable emotional tie with the music.

    It's a lush effort with lyrical content that's both honest and relatable--a real winner in its genre.

    Their latest full length, Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Your Anger, is another dozen or so satisfyingly original tracks by what could possibly be your next favorite band.

    It would serve River City Extension well to venture a bit more outside the box on their next album and add other perspectives and viewpoints. Otherwise, there proclamations run the risk of falling on deaf ears.
