Yet another new band hailing from Australia, more specifically from Melbourne.  Is it a welcome addition to a growing list ?  I’m afraid not (yet ?).

This album is a collection of almost every cliché you can find in metal. While the guitars aren’t too bad, the lyrics are awful. The fact that the guys in this band are very young might have something to do with that. If you ask me the should have waited a few more years, and hone their skills in the meantime, before having released an album.

Their style of music is mostly hair metal with roots in the 80ies. The album contains 10 songs, two of which are covers.  One cover is Dio’s ‘Stand Up And Shout’, and this isn’t too bad.  Second cover is Men At Work’s ‘Land Downunder’, and what they’ve done to this song is unspeakable. I always liked the original version, but this version…

65/100
