"Elam McKnight is a prime example of an artist who always succeeds. Elam McKnight again proves his unbridled talent and it is time for a greater number of music lovers to discover this artist."

Luc Meert, Rootstime.be (Belgium)

"a sound from Elam McKnight that I would baptize: country soul."

Historia Del Blues (Colombia)

"No question that the blues is strong with this release, but there are also hints of soul and roots, rock and pop, country, and gospel. McKnight is savvy enough to mix all of these genres together in a totally original way."

Graham Clarke (Blue Night)

“Radio”, the first single and title track from the band’s forthcoming album, seethes with the universal theme of unrequited love with a soulful touch reminiscent of the Muscle Shoals or Stax era, a sound McKnight calls “Country Soul”

Mother Church Pew (Nashville)

"Just like a Mason jar of good ole West Tennessee ‘shine, the music on this album gets a little stouter the farther along in this album you go."

Don Crowe (Nashville Blues)

"3.5 Stars. Mission Accomplished!"

Frank Hadley (Down Beat Magazine)

“This disc kicks with all the power of a mule gone berserk.”

Terry Mullins (Blues Blast)

 

“McKnight & Bogdal give the blues a shot of adrenaline as Zombie Nation is guaranteed to hypnotize you.” MJ, Skunk Magazine

 

“This is music to start a mosh pit for.” Maverick Magazine (UK)

 

“A magnificent achievement!”

Blues & Co magazine (France)

 

“A more than remarkable daring album, deeply rooted in southern black music, mixed with hypnotic, repetitive, electrified Delta blues and touches of 'hill country' and avant-garde alternative sounds..” LA Hora Del Blues(Spain)

 

“Both Bob and Elam keep their performances tied to the songs with grandstanding happily absent, and sound like they've spent the last 15 years playing their way out of back alley brawls.” Dave Gallaher Host of Talkin' the Blues on WLRH

 

“This music kicks ass, like Hill Country blues on steroids! These guys rock, but the music is blues all the way – played in a raw and intense manner, very deep.”  Przemek Draheim, National Radio (Poland)

 

"Zombie Nation is one of the best Albums of its style [that] I have listened to so far this year.“ John Vermilyea, Blues Underground Network, British Columbia, Canada

 

“Zombie Nation carries you to one of those smoke filled places with that whiskey smell. [This album] gives us reason to get excited about deep south blues again.” Tannehill Trader

 

"McKnight separates himself from many of his predecessors and contemporaries with thoughtful and insightful observations of today's world” Jon Norton, Program Director, WGLT(Peoria/Normal, IL)

 

✰✰✰1⁄2— Accomplished blues musicians Elam McKnight and Bob Bogdal have joined forces in hopes of expanding their respective fan bases. And if the excellent “ZombieNation” is any indication, the strategy should pay off for them." Jeffrey Sisk, Pittsburgh Daily News.

 

“I loved Elam McKnight’s previous release, Supa Good, but I think Zombie Nation, his recent collaboration with Bob Bogdal, may be even better. Seek this one out at all costs.“ Graham Clarke, Blues Bytes

 

“This is of the better blues CDs from the genre I have heard in the last few years.” Alfons Maes, Keys and Chords (Belgium)

 

“Zombie Nation is the result of a collaboration between two exceptional blues talents. At such an exceptional level that we will not hesitate to put forward this CD as one of the best we have in this genre in recent years.” Luc Meert, Roots Time (Belgium)
