Sounds Like: WE STILL HAVE THIS REVIEW UP , NOW WE KNOW A LOT OF MESSAGES HAVE BEEN SAYING UPDATE, BUT REALLY WOULD YOU TAKE THIS OFF!!! ,
**REVIEW**
Wow, we have a lot of contact with a few guys’ in the states that help us out with promotion, advertising, reviews, bookings etc, we do the same for them over here. They know who they are, saves us having to say thanks!
Well anyway, they have been punting the CD around some magazines, fanzines, and Press in America and Canada for us and well we got this review sent to us. Went to press last week in a magazine in Washington State (mike get off your arse and send us the paper we want to frame it). We are very proud of it. So have a read.
SOTLAND REALLY DOES HAVE HARD ROCK……ers!
A strange thing happened to me the other day, I was sitting in the office, staring out the window, bored, so I decided to do the Music reviews. Now, as you may be aware the feature editor is off on vacation, I picked the short straw!
There was a surprise in the intray, a package from Scotland. So needless to say, I wondered why it was here, I read the press pack and I thought, nothing unusual apart from different spellings, (when will the Brits realize it’s color!), but still wondered why it was here.
The Cd then kicked in, how glad was I they sent it. Well that was Thursday, today is Tuesday, and I have not stopped playing that damn CD. They blew me away, more than the wife ever did..i mean does.i mean...sorry dear!
So now I better do my job and tell you what they sound like I suppose. Imagine you walk into a Bar and Metallica have just finished playing, AC/DC are the headlining act but you need to wait for Johnny Cash (RIP) to go on, Well FNL are the band that you would expect to see on a bill like that.
The guys really are the last thing you would expect from the U.K. The vocals have a deep southern feel that is very reminiscent of early ZZ Top. The guitar however is defiantly from the Angus Young School of rock with a bit of Clapton for good measure. Mix all this together and strangely enough you have a very original sound. The song ‘Tell me’ was a rip roaring tune that had me waving a devil sign in the air, and at times I had to check this was not Iron Maiden.
Whereas ‘Time’ and ‘I’ll just wait’ had me wanting to drive down the freeway with the hood down, if only I had a hood, in fact if only I had a car. Although I must admit that ‘I know your name’ and ‘My religion’ had a definite heavier rocker side which made me go for the repeat button. Now personally I don’t think they will take the Charts by storm but if like me you get the chance to check them out, it would defiantly be worth it. The only negative from the experience was that I only got a 7 track sampler of the album 'DEAD IN VEGAS' . So needless to say will need to spend my hard earned (yeh right - ED) $$$ and get the album.
Nb. I am back on current affairs next week. (Too right you are. ED)
We did have A Hitlist of places pleasured by FNL but we have taken this off due to the fact we missed half of them out!!!!
