REVIEWS FOR MAKE ME SHIVER'S DEBUT ALBUM,
TOO MUCH TO DREAM

This is the kind of rock-and-roll I've been looking for! The haunting and powerful first track sets the tone with exquisite guitar-work and Charity's silver-tinged vocals. And the band always keeps it interesting. "Wicked Ways," a serious up-beat rocker is followed by the "Soul of the Sea," a beautiful ballad set in a timeless mythic otherworld. Not only does Make Me Shiver truly rock but all the songs are elegantly arranged and well-written. Charity's lyrics are intelligent, succinct and honest. "Piss You Off" is one of the many highlights on this album, a witty and catchy tune that simply tells it like it is and the infectious "Riding the Bell" is simultaneously accessible and mysterious. "Too Much to Dream," was my number one beach CD this summer and I can't wait to see what they come out with next.

"I was fortunate enough to get an autographed copy of [Make Me Shiver's] CD, and let me tell you, it's fan-****ing-tastic! [Charity] has the sound of Amy Lee from Evanescense with a bit of Hole mixed in! I definitely recommend going on line and getting this CD!

I was trying to figure out where I had heard a vocal styling like that before and came up with Holly Golightly ([Charity's] voice is similar, but much softer...maybe more like Yo La Tengo's Georgia Hubley in it's softest moments)....I love how the production is heavy with echo. I also really like how the drums sound (no big time arena polish..very refreshing)....matter of fact, the lack of studio polish overall gives it a garage rock feel, which (as everyone knows) is a sound I'm very big on....It's primal, urgent and above all else.... real . I was pleasantly surprised by it as a whole.

It's a solid CD and not to just single out one track or anything.....but my fave on it is "Love, Love, Love", which has a heavy Lou Reedish/Velvet Underground sound to me and the way the male backing vocals on this track intertwine with the lead I like a lot as well.

Very nice job MMS.....I look forward to the next offering.

"Too Much To Dream" is a vivid, rocking trip through a world emotions, seemingly centered around the theme of change. From the Fleetwood Mac-esque opener, "Riding The Bell," to the closing track, "Hush Now," this record is full of dynamic, musical bliss.

An Amazing Record!
I want to state, very clearly, up front: YOU HAVE TO OWN THIS RECORD. Not only do the songs on "Too Much To Dream" have catchy, pop-rock sounds that instantly ear-worm you, but each of the songs is crafted so that another layer is uncovered every time you put it in the CD player. At first, you just hear the catchiness of the songs, and then, the compositions start to show hidden things to you, and on a third listen, you might catch the subtle nuances of a lyrical turn-of-phrase, a metaphor buried deeply in the words, a comparison, an analogy, or an allegory to something old and familiar or something new and almost unknown. This record really has something for everybody, and I am so glad that I bought it at their show. It's a keeper!!!

REVIEWS FOR THE FIRST SINGLE FROM
TOO MUCH TO DREAM
"RIDING THE BELL"

"Riding the Bell" rocks! I'd love to hear more of your stuff-- I want the CD! ... The voice is great and perfectly balanced against the lead guitar ... [the] vocal harmonies behind the lines "make believe again / make me feel again"... sounds awesome. Good lyrics too, I know what it's like to be... "tired of keeping secrets"
Great work!
Matt

The guitar talking behind [the] voice is gorgeous. It's more like a vocal duet than a guitar and a chick. You two are bang on together. Those opening drums, Fleetwood Mac, yep. This went on my playlist.

Very sexy vox. Good tune, listened twice while typing.

Well, obviously there's nothing wrong with your voice. You got just a touch of Marianne Faithful (who?) in there, methinks. As well as the obvious McVie diction.
Nice song.

You have a very good song and arrangement[...]
