Spinefarm

Their second album retains the band's recognizable hard rock sound rooted in the simplicity of garage punk, but performed with the masterful musicianship of big league players. They've tweaked their direction a bit, veering from Detroit proto-punk and metal to incorporate some glam, early KISS, Heart, UFO and even some genius vocal hooks worthy of Fleetwood Mac. Skeptical? Check out moments like the gorgeous vocal bridge at 2:20 in "Give Up The Fight," or in "Bleeding Heart" when Ann-Sofie Hoyles sings, "...soothes my soul, through darkness..." Those are bona-fide rock 'n' roll transportive moments that may very well cause listeners to drive too fast, kiss too hard, or just shake their fist in their cubicle like a dumbass. And those aren't even the tracks that have been featured as videos and singles (yet). Those would be the brooding, buzzing "Shake Electric," the terse, punk anger of "Control" and the tough album opener "Mad Dog." "Lonely Nights" is another memorable highlight, with a catchy but simple riff and "woo-ooh" chorus that are tied together with Hoyles' charismatic performance.
