“Psycho Heroes” is the first album from the band taking the new hard rock’n’roll/punk direction.
The guitars follow the path of TURBONEGRO and not too surprisingly The HELLACOPTERS, and you’ll even get a few harmonica and Jerry-lee Lewis piano notes on “Hippie End”. The SUPERCOPTERS sometimes remind me of The JOYSTIX (“She Drinks Gazoline”…) when they get heavier than the typical high-energy rock’n’roll stuff.
You can tell that the band is still experimenting with their new style but it gives birth to a few enlightened moments in songs like “Splashback” or “N.R.A.” for instance. Unfortunately, 13 songs might be a bit too much as the whole thing tends to slightly fade away on the long runn but let’s keep an eye on them before they fly away too high./Laurent C.http://www.thesupercopters.com
