Luckily this time a band without an intro. I guess I have to thank god on my bare knees for that but first all my attention goes out to these Italian glamrockers. Looking at the artwork of the album, I would say the band is aiming for a spot between Guns ‘N Roses and Mötley Crüe. Listening to the first couple of songs of their album I realized the music is a more polished version of the bands I’ve mentioned above.
This is also the greatest setback of this band. The image on the artwork shows a rather tough band but listening to their music I have to say that all the edges of the music are gone. The entire album has a very smooth production which makes the songs even more friendlier than they already are. Next to this, there are a several songs on the album that come very close to a ballad, which gives me the idea of dealing with a simple rock band instead of a hardrock band. Exceptions to this are ‘Rock ‘N Roll Fist’ and ‘Never Alcoholized’, which do have a great rocky vibe, both songs I would like to hear with a rough edge.
This album is certainly not one I would take home after an afternoon shopping in a record store. The entire album sounds too soft and misses some rawness in the songs. On the other hand, if
