Synopsis

Album Description
"F*cking fantastic!" -- Maximum Rock `n' Roll"Another power-pop masterpiece." -- Punk Planet "Singer and guitarist Evan Foster sounds uncannily like a sneering Elvis Costello in prime mode and the tunes bounce along like the exuberant power-pop nuggets they are, all Cheap Trick flash and Supersuckers rawness." -- Kerrang! (KKKK) Fronted by guitar-smashing, soul-shouting, anthem-writing buzzbomb Evan Foster, Seattle's Boss Martians are the rock `n' roll band to look for in 2008! These Northwest garage punkers are back with their first album in over five years, and all thirteen tracks on Pressure in the SODO are lessons in how to play rough yet ready unadulterated rock `n' roll. Taking the album over the top is the Godfather of Garage Punk and the Rock Iguana himself: Iggy Pop! He wrote the Detroit-style hard rocker "Mars Is For Martians" especially for Boss Martians, and the tune features a titanic vocal duet between Iggy Pop and Evan Foster, with guitars so explosive they sound like a street fight between Ted Nugent and Wayne Kramer. Other highlights from Pressure in the SODO include the prog punk-infused "Don't Wanna See You Again" (with the Jon Lordlike work of Martians' keys man NickC), the Cheap Trick-inspired power ballad "And She's Gone," and the huge-sounding epic rocker "Elsie," with its Thin Lizzy-meets-The Who guitar heroics.

"I have a few Boss Martians records. All are good. Some are VERY good. But this one....simply rocks them all. If you are a fan of well written power-pop style rock (imagine Cheap Trick mixed with the Cars....on steroids), you'll love this. Plus....a bunch of smokin' guitar solos. Buy this record !"
