Anybody else on here as big a fan of Keith Caputo's solo work as I am? I just saw him perform live a couple of weeks ago, and it was easily one of the most intense performances I've ever witnessed.
Anybody into singer/songwriter style pop/rock should check out his music. I will never understand why he didn't make it big with his first solo album "Died Laughing" back in 2000, or why Roadrunner(!) chose not to release it at all in the US. It's such beautiful music and truly one of the few records I own that stand the test of time for me.
Currently, he has a new self-financed album out, it's called "Hearts Blood On Your Dawn". Keith is unsigned right now and is selling the record only at his shows and through his website, http://www.keithcaputo.com ... I really recommend it.

His track Selfish(?) i think off of that solo album was awesome. He put so much emotion into the way he sung it. That was the only track I heard of it but i still listen to it now.

I think I will listen to the newer stuff.

Yes, "Selfish" is an awesome song.

Almost the whole new album is available for streaming here:

You can order it right there for $10. I can guarantee it's worth more than that. Support the artist!

I am a huge fan of Caputo's vocals!!!

The guy created his own style back when in life of agony.
(listen to "through and through")

Died laughing is AWESOME! ( my fav track for the moment is "home" ).

I'll check his new release, thanx for the info!!!

I don't usually listen to this kinda music much (though that's definately not to say I don't like it), but I kinda like this... Might be ordering a copy when I have some spare cash.

New stuff sounds good.

Reminds me of Ryan Adams in places.

I've only heard of him yesterday, when I read a German Atomic Ants review. Don't know what it said, but it mentioned Junior (AA singer), Phil Anselmo, Eddie Vedder, Mike Patton and this guy in the same sentence... :P
