I’m
caught somewhere between heaven and hell when it comes to this album by The
Traceelords
titled “The Ali of Rock”. The
Traceelords hails
from Germany and this is their third
album. The first two is called; “Sex, Money, Rock’ n Roll” (2001)
and “Refuse to Kiss Ass” (2004).
The
reason why I’m caught between the darkened depths of hell and heaven
is that I have mixed feelings about this release. I find it quite
uninteresting when I’m sober but I kind of like it when I’m drunk or
in the right mood for this kind of music. This album rocks! But some of
the songs sucks!
We
get 14 songs with everything from Pop, Pop/Rock, Rock, Party Rock, to
tracks that very easily could have been found on the latest Green Day
album. A few of the songs are just plain ridiculous but most of them are
catchy and quite funny.
Take
for an example “Mr. Marple” a track with accordions and sounds like
the music my mother is listening to, but the catchy melody brings a
smile to my face when I’m in the mood for this kind of stuff or when
I’m drunk. Funny little song.
Give
it listen and decide for yourself.
