Stacy Crowne “Second To None”

Cologne, Germany rockers STACY CROWNE are back with a second album filled with 12 high-energy punk rock’n’roll songs. Opening track “Giving Up On You” brings The HELLACOPTERS to mind while “Ride Or Die” and “Second To None” offer us some fine crafted melodies with good old hard rock guitar riffs. The 70s heavy rock influences can also be heard in the spooky ballad “Street Vampires” while “Flying High” and “Sounds Like Hate” are probably catchiest songs on here. You’ll definitely get your action rock fix with “It Ain’t Right”, “Get Out Alive”, “Hero” or the addictive “Dead And Gone” so give this record a chance! /Laurent C.
