Lord Sonny The Unifer Delivers A Throwback 1970s Inspired Album Titled Final Notice

13 May

Lord Sonny The Unifer carries the tonality of the free spirit of the 1970s, grunge of the 90s, and easy listening of modern day music. Lead by musician Gregory Jiritano, the album cohesively shows a well thought out theme and mood. Listeners will recognize first and foremost their sound is unlike most bands you hear today. With experience in sound experimentation in their earlier works, the tracks are layered with the varieties of stylistic instruments that add an intentional dimension. The album Final Notice alludes to the final call and warning that we get in the mail for various things. It serves not only as a symbolic message, but a political one as well. Lyrics on the album vary from reflecting and storytelling all mixed in one. March Forth carries a lot of the grunge and electronic synth-powered sound that characterizes their music so distinctively. As for those wanting to listen to a band that carries connecting messages to their audience with heart, go ahead and give Lord Sonny The Unifer a listen.

The Present May Be Here, But FINAL NOTICE Brings The Free Spirit of The 60s/70s

26 Oct

Lord Sonny, the Unifer’s album FINAL NOTICE shows the raw and free spirit that 60s and 70s music hails from. When odds were against him after a studio fire burned his music and another time a collaboration falling through, Greg Jiritano powered through. All of these setbacks let to this success and creation of FINAL NOTICE. The spontaneous joining of Carmine Covelli, Tyler Wood, and Derek Nievergelt alongside Jiritano helped make this a reality with taking this from solely Jiritano to a band. Paying homage to the phrase we see to express the last step of urgency was the inspiration behind the title of the album. By connecting something that listeners identify with shows another way that Lord Sonny, the Unifer brings everything together with a unifying intention. The album carries messages about journeys, hidden meanings, and self discovery. As for the sound and musical arrangement, nothing is overdone on the album. The instrumentals work all together and there are glimpses of the Mellotron, keyboard, and synthesizer unifying the feels of 60s/70s music and bringing in new sounds of the present.
