The 11th Street Album in perspective
The 11th Street album is a collection of 11 soul-piercing powerful pop songs with Luke Crimiel’s superb musical theatre talent spread all over the background. The album’s musical arrangement and style elicit vintage pop renditions of the 70s and 80s. Crimiel’s style draws inspiration from legendary pop stars like Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Steven Wonder and Prince. Crimiel’s musical range on this album is impressive, and his singing ability has a technical and robust belt underlining its excellence in all 11 tracks.
Every song on the album is well-written—which has been a trademark of the musician—and the performance is smooth and powerful to the core.
The opening song “Lost” gives the album a dramatic and exquisite atmosphere. In this song, Crimiel talks about how his love died very early due to hypersensitivity. You can feel the song’s soulful melody, his moods and his struggle as an artist, something that mostly characterizes Crimiel’s music.
Nothing Left took the pop vibe higher with enchanting rhythm and dancing tunes that instantly set you up your feet. The vocals resonate better with the R&B vibes from the intricate instrumentals.
On Breathe, Crimiel delivers a livelier poetic rendition with superb melodic reverbs. “It’s impossible to breathe” when you’re constrained all about, and you start to lose your love….powerful song.
The Move continues the superlative melodic flow that characterizes the previous song. It’s another song with a super poetic flow with an upbeat that keeps you bumping all the way through.
On Telephone, Crimiel showcases his ability to put two lovers in a mood that bridges and defies the distance barrier. A compelling song with solid drums, electric guitar and piano nicely arranged to create a groovy show-stealing flow. It is one of the best tracks on a beautiful album.
Will We takes a more laid-back approach with lyrical construction that talks about overcoming challenges. But on Right Way, Crimiel dwells more on a lover’s interlude, with a melody that sounds like an eerie intro into a dark world of uncertainty.
Heart in My Hands is a testament that Crimiel is a multi-talented artist who knows how to weave deep emotions into compelling lyrical love tales. The electric guitar once more dominated this track, and the vocal performance was outrightly perfect.
Run offers a scintillating musical flow with steady beats and typical pop synth that tells how sometimes we do things beyond our limits. The vibe on Nikki was more fast pace and electrifying, with captivating vocal performance.
Crimiel rounds up the album with What’s Wrong, a soulful and passionate lyrical structure that foretells a broken heart and eluding happiness.
Overall, the 11th Street album is well packaged and shows how sophisticated Crimiel can easily alter his style with transition and pace in his songs. Crimiel’s dynamism is breathtaking, and the entire album speaks of quality and boasts of the artist incredible visions for the next coming years.
