The Mars Patrol are from Edinburgh, Scotland. The Mars Patrol are a female fronted rock
band. The Mars Patrol have just released their new CD and The Mars Patrol have hit a home run with it. Clocking in at 21 minutes
and 34 seconds, this 7-song e.p. kicks into high gear from the beginning. With their can't-miss formula of smooth as ice production
and Davina Divine's sexy singing style, it's easy to see why this Scottish quartet has a rather impressive following, not
just in their homeland, but worldwide. Along with Davina Divine, the band is rounded out by guitarist Ross Nelson (drums on
the e.p.), bassist Stephen Parker and drummer Stuart Spence.
"Are You With Me" opens up with the title track followed by Turn It
Around and The Kiss Goodnight. The album slows down with Crying your heart out
and I still Want you. Not in quality, but rather in terms of tempo. As Divina sings "I still want you to
know me/ I still want you to hold me", you can feel the convincing emotion and desperation in her voice. The pace speeds
up once again with Can I have you and the final track One Mans Greed.
This album, as well as the band, are examples of how more artists should approach their fanbase.
Straight forward Pop/Rock with no over indulgance on their part. In my opinion, this is the "8 ball corner pocket" of CD's
and anyone who enjoys the kind of music that you continually replay, then this is definitely the CD for you. Become a fan
today!
