NEVER BE THE SAME kicks off this review with a very intriguing song that will have you hearing more from this band. This song reminds me of a band called New Musik.
THE DOCTOR IS MY DEALER shows another color of the band as the beat is straight on and very solid. This song has a blues-like touch to it, but they take it to a whole new level. Very impressive, to say the least.
SLAVES brings out a whole different level to the band, which you would expect. The song is laid back with a heavy overload. This song has a bit of Nine Inch Nails meet Mew. What a supercool band and song.
IN MY LIFE is a very short song which is played on acoustic guitar which is sweet. This song seems like an outtake from a Beatle album. FAKE brings out the synthpop favor from the band, which is a real treat. They really know how to bring everything out of the band, doing it with ease.
MY KINDA GIRL has the vibes of the band, Spandau Ballet, which is a bit melodic. This song seems like a real true love song. I'm amazed. ALL MY GOOD FRIEND [feat.Paul Holmes] is a superb song that will get in your head. The melody and lyrics state it all. This song is super strong in all the ways you can think of. A true classic.
BACK TO THE FUTURE 4 [1984] is amazing as they do their own version of the soundtrack with their own touch. This is an unofficial soundtrack and would fit well in the real soundtrack. WOW! Keep your eyes and ears out for this band. I'd like to THANK THE BAND for being in touch. You can find them at: You tube, Apple Music, iHeartRadio, Spotify and other sites. ROCK ON, JIM ALLFORD [STEEL NOTES MAGAZINE.]
