This
young American band from Minneapolis really caught me off guard! Who would have
thought these young kids would make a killer record of 70s style blues rock!
The CD features 9 tracks in 48mins. This one caught me off guard for sure as
these young kids really rock. The opening track is a fast paced track called
Lone Crow with a good rocking riff and some powerful vocals and nice solos. Can’t
go Home Again has a hard edge but bluesy feel to it. Heard you Call slows
things down and shows the more bluesy side of the band and it is a brilliant
song highly inspired by Black Magic Woman. It has some really beautiful guitar
playing. These guys have the correct influences. You got Nothing is another
well crafted 70s style rock song with passionate singing and cool guitar riffs!
Moonshine brings back the blues again. The Ghost is an instrumental jam track
that fades in and the band just has a cool jam. When I move On has some great
stuff but seems like an aborted track or something. I dug the riff and the
solos but only one vocal section and then a solo and over.. Hum… The Crawl is
one of the heaviest riffs on the record on this slower track,which really rocks
at the end. Running through my Head closes this excellent record with another
bluesy rocker. I am pretty amazed by these young guys. They have written a
great set of mature songs. My only complaint is the production is a bit too
clean and digital some how.. Cool record and one I have played many times.
