The Most Beautiful Losers - Playin' With Hearts
These guys remind me of a mix of REM, The Black Crowes and The Georgia Satellites all mixed, but these cats are not from Georgia like all the foresaid (I coulda said early Bruce Springsteen, or even Cobain but we'll leave Jersey and wherever else outta this). Basic straight up rock n roll, like they display on "Watch The Stars" is the modus operandi for the complete disc. They shout out to almost every momma's little helper on "Something For The Pain" (which reminds me, it's past time for me own medication), and dedicate "Dynamo Jim" to the depressive reality of the illusion of alkeehawl. In fact, the study of the shot and strong one weight heavily throughout, making the complete album a sing along to the inebriated. They infuse blues (Your The Antidote) and the art of pacing (Sober Up For The Show) throughout, and you know these guys aren't newbies. Nuff Said!

The Most Beautiful Losers
Playing With Hearts
"This Canton, Ohio bar band put out a great disc with a stripped down guitar, bass and drums sound that makes the occasional banjo, dobro or harmonica they slip into the mix all the more interesting. The sound is reminiscent of Lucero or maybe Nirvana with a sense of humor. Much better than a band named after a Bob Seger song should be.
They have a great website with music. "

“The Most Beautiful Losers wear their hearts on their sleeves and obviously adore The Replacements and Lynyrd
Skynyrd ... they don’t cry in their beer, they spit in it!”- -
Tom Dawson - Columbus Other Paper




"Excellent music that makes me feel that there is still hope out there for songs written right, a little whiskey left, and dreams broken down. I would love to join this band.”- - Brendan Casey, DJ at WQKE College Radio New York




"I got this killer cd… it’s BAR ROCK with slow personal lyrics interspersed but it doesn’t detract from the quick style and southern picking. Give them a “shot”!” - - Dave Royce, Hold Your Dog Breath Online zine 



"A drinking band with a Rock and Roll problem is their Tagline. Pretty accurate if you ask me :) Although the quintessential The Most Beautiful Losers experience happens live, their Albulm, Playing With Hearts, is a good fix when you need it at home relaxing with your misery or triumph, or on the road when the wind calls to you.

Here's a quick Synopisis --

This albulm features 13 (my lucky number) tracks of Chris' earthy volcals, guitar with part twang resemblaing the likes of Neil Young and hints of late Cash, with Brad's solid bass, and Todd's frenzied staccato drumming. IF I had to be so lame as to put a label on it I'd call it post modern cow punk americana. Or if Neil Young, Bill Malloonee, Social Distortion, and Uncle Tupelo decided to combine their genteic material, and then turn it up to 11 as Spinal Tap would say. My own accurate label for them -- suprisingly cathartic sonic whiskey.

The albulm starts out with two brisker paced songs Everything Ive done and Watch the Stars, and the always familar line in my own life from the first song --"Everything will fall apart it's all just a matter of when and where and who and why and what." Actually, that line points out a lot of why I like this band-- very fitting lyrics to most peoples lives. They are defintely an every-man (and woman's) type of band. Following this song is the bouncy, Water Me Down of needing to get out of a small town, then the slower heartbreaker, Something for the Pain.

Then the album virtually demands that you turn the volume to ear shattering levels as you listen to the next track, the bombastic Dynamo Jim. Two other gems in this collection need specific attention in my opinion -- Sweet on You, an inspired by Evil Dead and Army of Darkness love song filled with catchy hooks, and then the obvious fan favorite Noah Judd.

Nothing will ever really describe the soudn of this chilling epic, kind of And Justice For All style ballad taking a wrong turn in the Appalacahian Mountains with a thin veneer of americana spread over it. One of my favorite types of songs, it starts off slow and plodding building to a crencendo of emotion and roaring guitars, with Todds great drums thundering through the whole time.

IF you really wanna know them, pick up the albulm form Cdbaby, or amazon. I have one of their tracks on my front page right now. You can find them on my friends list too http://cdbaby.com/cd/tmbl is a great link to get an album or even find thier main website.

And to really get this band, watch them live. If you wanna have some fun, ask 'em to play a cover. You'll get, an, er friendly response that will be worth the price of admission alone. "
Matt Orwig - A FAN REVIEW! 




"They play awesomely when they get hammered before a show; the drummer starts up with a Beavis impression:) And they invite you to drink some of their beers(their van is stocked full of alcohol)always a way to make friends:P "
Leeann - Fan Review from MySpace 




"They're great live, their music rules. I love their preformances. It was funny to walk past them to the restroom, and do a fast hop away from their frenetic playing. Losing an amp cord while jamming out is a sign of dedication. "
