Review Written by Victoria Scott & Staff
Güten Morgan’s first studio CD, Trash Day, was released in 2019, and consists of eight original and 2 cover songs – including an acoustic cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Over the Hills and Far Away”. Off Trash Day, “Adam’s Song (For the Love of That Woman)”, is a great way to fall in love with this artist.
Güten Morgan's grunge rock ballad “Adam’s Song (For the Love of That Woman)” from his Trash Day album is a rare depiction of devotion. “Adam’s Song” is a true representation of how love is an atomic force of impulsive emotions that can lead to grande and heroic actions.
Sizzling, catchy metal guitar riffs start the song with hard hitting drums keeping the rhythm section tight and engaging. Soon Güten Morgan’s rich and masculine, gritty vocals enter, elevating the emotional intensity of the song. The doubling of the fierce and fervor vocals add high voltage to the chorus sections.
The track is highlighted by Matt Burton's guitar solos. Matt kills it on guitar during the bridge with a not-to-be-missed climactic guitar solo.The icing on the cake is the intelligent, well-written lyrics that depict the kind of love that kings and warriors fought over.
“Ancient rulers, princes, kings – sacrificed their subjects, For the promises of love just one look at her brings. People lost, peoples won, kingdoms come and go. Is she a gift from up above, or temptation from below?”
The 70's influenced heavy rock arrangement with it's nice rough exterior gives the song a bold, yet gracious tone. The heavy metal riffs and distinct marching style rhythms at the end of the song add to the nuance of sound, intensity and direction
In the beautiful and passionate representation of love and devotion. “Adam’s Song” is a gritty, rock love ballad that details raw affection from the heart. Guten Morgan’s unique portrayal of love and sanctity showcases his impeccable songwriting.
