Picture Perfect is a 4 piece band hailing from the Los Angeles
area. The tracks on their 6 song deuut EP have a good time feel
and lack the arrogant attitude of the LA scene from the late
80’s / early 90’s.
Rich Mortlock’s vocals on the opening track Hold On are
reminiscent of Kenny Monroe from Tuff Luck. Comparisons can also
be drawn to the bands Charlie and Sing Sing respectively in
terms of vocals.
Matt deMari guitar solos throughout the CD flow effortlessly and
are direct, to the point compositions. Particularly beautiful is
deMari’s acoustic and electric fretwork on the ballad “Walk
Away”. My personal favorite is “Lady Of The Night”, a dream girl
song with a solid rocking back beat.
The 4 part vocal harmony on “Better State Of Mind” reminds me of
Journey while “Taken By Love” reminds me of Warrant’s debut CD.
These tracks were initially recorded in 1992 and the strengths
of the band can be found especially in the 4 part harmony vocals
throughout the CD and the guitar of Matt deMari.
