Good to see that The Artist Formally Known As Vince is back, though this band from Chicago never stopped rocking.12 new songs with lots of 60s and 70s influences (“Lapdog”, “Light”, “She’s a Disaster”…) wrapped in glitter. The fact that both male and female vocals work together reinforces the melodic side of the songs. The RAMONES sometimes meet early bubblegum pop in “Laser Beam Precision” or “Falling” and the B-52’s turn to early NYC punk rockers in “O” and “Wreck”.
A good record to listen to in these days of easily overproduced stuff, but I’m sure that seeing the band live must be even better!/Laurent C.http://www.vincerock.com/
