2005, Alias
In 1992 Alias released May I Sing With Me, the first effort to feature permanent bassist James McNew (formerly of Christmas). It was recorded at Fort Apache studios in Boston and was engineered by Lou Giordano. With the arrival of James the trio found its niche-not quite a pop band, not quite a guitar-jam band, but with touches of both. Every album since he joined the band has had a few indelible pop tunes and at least one lengthy guitar workout. May I Sing With Me contains hot-wired extremist guitar tendencies with the occasional sidestep into melodic beauty like the song "Detouring America With Horns" or the infectious indie-pop classic "Upside-Down".
