"A NeverEnding Walk", XXRUB's latest offering due out in the summer of 2009,paints with all the colors of rock and soul. Songs range from a BrianEno-inspired ambient tune (The Twilight Prelude) to a Morrocan-feel,jazz-infused groove (When The World Was Flat), from a Black Sabbath/AC?DC hardrocker (Maybe) to a bluesy/pop number (Let Me Take You), from reggae dub/skaquirkiness (The Girl Who Sat Next To Me) to a gospel intro with an eightiesgroove (Love Is Raining), a Beatlesque tribute (Tonight?), and definitely a BoDiddley riff like no other (Daydreamer). The title track is basically a"dream" put into a song. Some songs have some very seriousundertones, yet XXRUB never takes itself too seriously.
