For
all of you who have been looking for something to fill that gap left
empty when Seb Bach & Co decided to call it a day then let me tell
you Pyn Siren are the new Skid Row. Danny Mariano’s vocal talent is
nothing less than astounding. Backed by Pete Ruello on bass, Frank
Calarco on Drums and Gary Valasco on guitar, Pyn Siren are a force to be
reconciled with.
If any of you can remember Spreadeagle and Childsplay then you know the
sound that Pyn Siren have put together. ‘Slave to your Master’
delivers from start to finish. From the opening chords of ‘Cry me a
River’, right down until the final chords of the title track ‘Slave
to your Master’, you know this is going to be something special.
This album delivers the goods. It really is an awe inspiring masterpiece
that shows that there is still plenty of good solid rock music out
there. It’s just a case of not accepting what is thrown at you by the
media, and allowing them to drag you along in their whirlwind of hype,
just because a band are signed to big influential label.
If you want to know where the real golden bands are then try looking a
little further afield at some of the smaller more independent labels
about. Kivel Records are rapidly growing up a reputation for finding
that musical pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and with Pyn Siren
that’s definitely what has happened here.
Rather amusingly one of the band members dedicates the album to … my
‘skeptics’ for inspiration … I guess there must be a lot of
musicians out there who have been told to get a real job and forget
about their dreams of being a rock star. Some take that advice while
other draw inspiration from it and actually grow stronger in their will
to succeed. It certainly sounds from that dedication that Pyn Siren are
one such band.
At first glance with the album name and cover design you might think Pyn
Siren are indeed a simple rip off band of the mighty Skid Row. However
just one listen to this band and this album and you’ll soon realize
there’s no rip off going on here. It’s like the first time you hear
an electric guitar and it totally blows your mind, that’s the effect
this album will have on you when you listen to it for the first time.
It’s such a delight to hear songs like these being played after all
the drudge and blandness we’ve had to suffer over the years. You’ll
feel like you’ve been transported back in time to the glory days on
Sunset Boulevard.
Wake up it’s time to come alive and it’s time to rock n’ roll
again!
