MEDIA QUOTES

Solid hard rock (with psychedelic traces). An eclectic album that will please many of you.

-Andrea Bertamino, Flash Magazine, Genova , Italy

 

A bombastic, theatrical style of rock, with a mystical touch that is Mitchell's own.

-Skip Sheffield, The Boca News, FL.

 

His lyrics are rich in literary metaphor and symbolism, they create elaborate, mythical panaramas. Mitchell is a craftsman who has melded a classical literary form with concert rock.

-Sonja Mongar, Jam Magazine,Orlando, FL

 

Laden with heavy guitar riffs and metaphysical lyrics, the 15 song CD "Fallen Moons" has a decidingly spiritual theme. In between songs that explore deeper meanings, are good old-fashioned boy meets girl love songs, and boy looses girl blues.

-Brian Bixler, The Stuart News, FL

 

Mitchell's intricate guitar stylings and the band's Yes influenced keyboard and rhythm work make "Fallen Moons" one of the more distinct offerings of Rock this year.

-Andy Charest, The Fort Pierce Tribune, FL

 

It's a rocker!

-Scene Arts of the Treasure Coast, FL.

 

"Fallen Moons" serves as a shining example of a progressive rock guitar based album. Complex arrangements, careful attention to production details, out of this world lyrical content.

-Mark Chester, Ink 19, Melbourne, FL

 

The spirit of progressive and hard rock is alive and kicking ....besides being a top lead guitarist, Mitchell carries the weight of the bands' sound providing all the music, lyrics and lead vocals. Mitchell is assisted by some fine players.

-Robert Silverstein, 20th Century Guitar Magazine, Hauppauge, New York

 

This progressive hard rock band has produced an album loaded with catchy high energy guitar and keyboard riffs.

-Rag Magazine Fort Lauderdale, FL

 

Songs primarily about mythology, a strong (pre-permanent waves) Rush influence seems to emanate throughout. Musically they have their acts together.

-Nick Casino , The Musican's Trade Journal Nashua, NH

 

The quartet plays a metal influenced hard driving rock. The band sounds so decadently defiant on their latest CD "Fallen Moons".

-Charles Passy, The Palm Beach Post, FL

 

"Above and Below" is a juxtapositon of lyrics rich with supernatural and mythological metaphor on a backdrop of jarring heavy metal sound and hard rock rhythms.

-Michelle Genz, The Miami Herald, FL.

 

Quasi-classical arrangements give Mitchell ample room to shred in every conceivable key, while lyrically, the Euphoria's songs roam fantastical landscapes of wizards and witches and warlocks. Mitchell and bandmates embellish these Tolkein-esque tales with florid harmonies and melodies as busy as the solos.

-Sean Piccoli, Sun Sentinel, Fort Lauderdale, FL

 

"Fallen Moons" harks back more to the days when bands merged arena-rock's guitar heroics with the grandiose gestures of English progressive groups. Mitchell's no throwback, his guitar chops are up to date, as is the production of "Fallen Moons", but Mitchell's ambitious arrangements employ much more than fret burning.

-Curtis Ross, The Tampa Tribune, FL

 

Music fans in Japan and Europe would totally eat this up, three meals a day. Aside from the well-crafted guitar parts, the vocal harmonies enrich the sound, yet another degree.

-Linda Anderson, Buzz Magazine, Orlando, FL

 

A pastiche of Hendrix-psych blues, Rush prog and crystal-hippie new age sentiments over a solid bed of classic hard rock. A refreshingly odd weave of the metaphysical and the metallic.

-Martin Popoff, Hard Radio, Guitar World, Maximum Guitar, Toronto, Canada

 

Mitchell's  "Animator" CD has a progressive / psychedelic rock sound, built on heavy riffs and guitar components. In some of the neo-classical sections, there is an eastern feel, resulting from the use of his exotic scales and modes.

-Mike Varney, Guitar Player Magazine, San Mated, CA

 

Any fan of mind blowing guitar riffs, solos, and singing, is hereby obligated to visit Mitchell at any of his live shows featuring music from his "Animator" CD.

-Phil Gretch, The Local Buzz Magazine, West Palm Beach , FL

 

If the Treasure Coast has its own guitar God, some might say it's Freddy Mitchell.

-Bill DeYoung, The Stuart News, Stuart, FL
