A Different Kind of Music List: Best of 2007

•  Rocco DeLuca & The Burden

I_trust_you_to_kill_meThis is the most interesting new rock album I’ve heard in some time: I Trust You To Kill Me. Their sound is original — a jangly roots-rock romp laced with bluegrass and countrified leanings.

I agree with the reviewer who wrote that their bluesy debut album “fairly vibrates on DeLuca’s Dobro steel guitar and throaty wail.”

DeLuca careens from influence to influence, paying homage to his predecessors and then going a step further. The music is flavored with dollops of Jeff Buckley, Coldplay but most of all, Bron Y-Aur Stomp era Led Zeppelin.

I Trust You To Kill Me is one of those rare discs where there in not a single weak cut on the CD.
