The biography of Virginia-based rock band “Tilt” is a
waste of time. It is most assuredly a fascinating read--a story most would
claim to be a grandiose and exaggerated tale that is too far-fetched to
possibly be true, yet a tale that is tragically and triumphantly true to its
core. The combined lives of "Tilt" members Neal Waller, David Elmore, Bryan
Vernon, and Johnathan Middleton are outrageously captivating, yet it is
their music that tells the real story.
“Tilt” is about moments. Heart-pounding, chest-thumping, ear-ringing,
moments. The kind of moments that typically are accompanied by parenthood,
penitentiary, or pounding guilt. Tilt offers terminal release from life in
general on a song-by-song basis, their energy is real and what rock is for.
“Tilt” offers a modern spin on classic rock themes--their bluesy, driving,
and soulful sound has bridged generations, genders, and cultures. Their
music is hook-laden and riff-driven, it is deceptively simple and
jack-hammer tight, it is immediately engaging and forever fascinating. Their
live performances are primal and passionate while executed with flair and
precision. “Tilt” is rock music at its best.
In less than a year, the band has achieved more than most have in entire
careers. They wrote and recorded a sold-out demo and proceeded to write and
record a full-length CD. Their first gig saw them opening for a guitar
legend to thunderous applause, and they have continued to open for national
acts to outrageous response. They have generated a grassroots reputation of
infamy and musical respect that proves American rock music still lives and
breathes.
The story of “Tilt” cannot be told, it can only be experienced. It is one
hell of a ride and worth the trip
