The
Answer, well they might be, the question who will be the next big thing.
That’s what my first feeling were when I first put this EP on my CD
player. Too say that I was impressed would be an understatement this
young Irish band can certainly hit the heights if they are pushed onto
the right people, with a sound that is very much a mix of Led Zeppelin
meets The Darkness in guitar and vocal styles.
The first track 'Keep Believing' is definitely influenced by the mighty
Zep and just a little of the Who and is the sort of thing that if they
reformed today I hope that this is what they would sound like, fresh and
exuberant.
The second track 'No Questions Asked' is more of the same Robert Plant
style vocals with more mood change than you can shake a stick at and
some really excellent guitar riffs mid way through the track that really
catch your imagination and take you back to those long hot summer days
we used to have back in the 70's.
'Be What You Want' takes the tempo down a notch and is very reticent of
the Darkness's 'More Than A Feeling' with its big guitars and no
nonsense rock n roll and catch chorus lines.
'So Cold' after the initial intro of big guitars its down to business
with some really ballsy old fashioned hard rock that is just a joy to
listen too and makes a change to hear a young back going back to the
roots of rock and bringing it slap bang into the now, great stuff and a
band certainly one to watch out for.
