For the Good of Rock & Roll. The tantalizing, yet presumptuous words are laid upon an otherwise unassuming album cover, just below the initials of Damien Tavis Toman. This is both a blazing declaration of rock and roll’s mediocre half-life and an invitation to witness a marvel that injects new vitality into it. Ranging from powerfully infectious folk anthems to tragic lamentations, each eclectic piece fulfills the promise of musical salvation and ensures that this purveyance of rich and deeply introspective songs is also the highlight of Toman’s extensive dossier in every aspect. Complexity, structure and vocals are enhanced threefold for this effort. Raw, emotional lyrics are belted out with as much conviction as the layers of multi-faceted instrumentation, proving that the anchoritic nature of a one-man band can incubate a virtual Galapagos of diverse and extraordinary styles. Like a great painting, this album yields something new every time it’s experienced, proving that it is indeed intended for the good of rock-and-roll.
