Since Monte actually wants to be/is a singer songwriter too. Right now he did some backup vocals with Lisa on FYE, Music Again and WWFM on tv. I remember him saying Letterman's freezing studio made his voice quiver it wasn't vibrato. I think his voice blends well with Adam's although it was his vocal that was primarily so out of tune at the AMA's unfortunately. I don't think he could hear that night. koshka

The show is all about youngsters performing songs from decades ago - songs that the audience knows and usually loves. The fans fall in love with them singing classic songs, and then when they release genre-specific contemporary albums, America just couldn't care less. People raved about Fantasia singing Summertime, for example. But then she released a modern R & B album and lost her audience. That's also one reason that AI audience skews older. It's not so much about giving the contestants a viable launching pad for a current music careers but about who best performs songs from 2 generations ago. Adam has mentioned a few times that he doesn't want to sing "classic rock" because it's been done in the 70s. It's called classic for a reason he said. He loves the genre but wants to do something with a contemporary twist. Should have done electro pop on AI – and stuck w it or stayed to the image/genre of Rock he gave us on AI.

WWFM, Aftermath, Sleepwalker, and even Sure Fire Winners has some blistering guitar work. A more 80's style rock sound but it's still rock n roll. Adam said his album was going to mix a bunch of styles. There is some Rock on his album. WWFM, Aftermath, Sleepwalker, and even Sure Fire Winners has some blistering guitar work.

It was the likes of Kara and Randy who kept hammering in the idea: ROCK ALBUM ROCK ALBUM. While Adam just seemed to give a "hmm. ok" non-answer, because it was never his intention to go 100% rock. IMO, what was mentioned above as the disconnect between an AI audience of (mostly) over 35 year-olds and the kind of music that Adam and Kris came out with is more the issue - the AI audience now skews even older than before, and with Adam and Kris turning out much more youth-oriented albums, imo, that's where you have the disconnect.

As it is, Adam didn't do all rock on AI, he did plenty of other genres. Besides, it's a bit hard for a new artist to brand themselves on a show that specializes in decades old music. Unless one is going for country or ez listening, which really haven't changed much in several decades. AI fans aren’t enough to make a career off of.
