Crossing over into the music world after spending years in Hollywood can be a tough task, especially if your decade of success was followed a well-publicized bumpy ride through your twenties, as was Corey Feldman’s. His newly formed project, The Truth Movement, is his first major attempt at reaching a different audience. His effort, Still Searching For Soul, is a strong one.
Feldman’s music is best described as Pink Floyd-influenced blues. The opening track, longer than ten minutes, is a deep opener for an even deeper opus. He has assembled a fine group of artists who create music that is at once emotionally heavy and serene.
Each tune is crafted differently. There are sequels to a few of the songs scattered throughout the disc that serve to pull together the work as a whole and effectively complete this collection. Although the sound is high quality, Corey’s vocals need to be smoothed out. His lyrics are a testament to the ills of the industry, but sometimes overshadow the sound that is the backdrop. His words do need to be heard, because they are the truth, but they are at times overpowering on this very promising project.
