Sounds Like: BARFLY - BIRMINGHAM - 23/6/7.
Taking things back to their roots, My Great Affliction are full throttle rock and roll. Piercing vocals and bags of attitude from front man Dylan pushed the tracks along at a ferocious pace whilst managing to maintain the material's melody. A great performance with influences from Motley Crue in their sound. It proved a highly entertaining set from a band with excellent showmanship and a wealth of musical ability. There is no doubting that they have passion for their music and this went down very well at the Barfly. Stephen Hudyuba.

STOURBRIDGE ROCK CAFE 2000 29/4/7.
Now who can ask for better than this? A blast of sleaze-rock akin to early Guns ‘N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver; a super-slick performance from a super-slick band. The 5 members are obviously comfortable with each other and that comes across in the way they work together as a group. You get the feeling of 100% star quality just watching them. There was very little interaction with the audience; there didn’t need to be. The band’s stage show was nothing more or less than what it was; 5 guys playing pure rock and roll. As they were the last band on, they played to probably the smallest crowd of the night, but those who stayed certainly got what they came for and I have no doubt in my mind that anybody who enjoys rock music should see these guys live at least once. Matt Dastard.
