‘2113’ is a blur of dynamic, late night booze fuelled journeys filled with timeless hooks and immensely powerful solos. A band that knows how to capture your attention; they filter the music of their childhood heroes add a contemporary twist and their unique flair and create magic. They build on their concrete foundation of strong vocals and catchy choruses, wrap up some tight backing and present a very pleasing album complete with a jazzy little bow.

The Review:
The Pittsburgh
‘Photograph’ is up next with a sexy little groove that gets the hips going, redolent of smoky bars, cheap whisky and one night hook ups; it swoons the senses and inflames the libido with its thrumming vibrations. An excellent solo midway keeps up the vibe before it is taken over by what can only be described as a Wah fiesta....some fucker has found that pedal and he is going to make it earn its money! ‘Jim’s Song’ is an upbeat, bluesy number chock full of the pant wettingly (take that as you will) good guitar riffs, the up tempo swagger filled vocals and impressive drum work typifies their style and demonstrates their excellence. ‘Man Like Me’ whiny guitars-check, thrashing drums- check, good bass line- check, swarthy vocals, that yes, would encourage me to love a man like that,- check, really need I say anymore, aural pleasure- get on it!
Lastly, ‘cos if someone covers Joe Walsh, you just have to write about it, ‘Turn To Stone’, and well, what can I say? Soulful with flashes of Brent Smith style vocals, expertly executed riffs, blending acoustics and crying guitar make this an immensely pleasurable cover that will linger filling up the senses. ‘2113’ is a blur of dynamic, late night booze fuelled journeys filled with timeless hooks and immensely powerful solos. A band that knows how to capture your attention; they filter the music of their childhood heroes add a contemporary twist and their unique flair and create magic. They build on their concrete foundation of strong vocals and catchy choruses, wrap up some tight backing and present a very pleasing album complete with a jazzy little bow.
