The five British guys in the
rock band The Burning Crows release their debut
album 'Behind the Veil'. Their wall of sound sounds
undoubtedly British without a shred of evidence. Very groovy
and bluesy melodic rock in; The Darkness, or think harder Oasis
style, everything packaged in a tough attitude and a touch from the
sleaze rock genre. The first track 'High' is hooking me directly with Whippz high pitched vocals and the marvellous 70s groovy rock rhythm. 'All the Way' is next song on the list and it swings really good. Tons of attitude and unpolished rock 'n roll is coming up in 'You, Me, Tonight'. 'Time' is a down-tempo song, which is very melodic and has a lot of Led Zeppelin touch. 'So Wrong' and 'Fallin' are two of the top tracks on the album where the legacy from the brilliant UK hard rock shines through. There is only one ballad on the disc and it's 'Here I Am'. A classic rock ballad with a great power growth in the end of the song. One of my personal favourites 'Say My Name' with cool guitar riffs and nice harmonies. In the heavy and mysterious 'Devil May Care' tempo is slowed down again and the sound is darker; a nice disruption from the happy and easy rock n roll music. But in the next track is it full throttle again. 'Slow Up, Get Down' is an easy-going track without any extras. In the title song 'Behind the Veil' puts a smile back on my face; a very catchy and bluesy song with a hefty rhythm section that keeps the pace. 'Going Down' is apparently a bonus track and is one of the strongest tunes on the album. A very nice debut album, which is a given purchase to the fan of classic British hard rock! Lineup: |
