Synopsis

Album Description
These guys bring it on. Some folks may not like the loud guitars and swaggering attitudes but that's their loss. I swear I haven't rocked this hard since "Street Survivors." Even though "Fear Not the Obvious" doesn't have dueling guitar solos, the rocking songs more than make up for it. That song where they tear Hank Jr. a new one is pretty good too.

CD Reviews

Rawk'n'Roll
Mike Elliott | Oxford, NC United States | 11/12/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In a perfect world, Britney, Christina, Justin, Beyonce, Linkin Park, and Fred Durst would be wallowing under the Rock Of Obscurity while the Yayhoos and their ilk rocked souled-out shows at the Garden and the Hollywood Bowl. From beginning to end, there's not another album of this caliber out right now, or in the past decade at least. It's real rawk'n'roll, baby!After mulling over the knee-jerk first sentence of this review, I reconsider. What would be the fun of knowing and diggin' this band if EVERYONE did? It's cool to be a part of a kinda "secret club" where we can silently giggle when some bonehead elitist in Billboard prints that "rock and roll is dead". Rock on, boys!"
A Gem

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I hate the term claasic rock. To me it signifies something dated, something less than relevant to whats happening today. Fact is, this is the best pure rock and roll CD I've heard in I don't know how long. Pulsing backbeats, gritty guitars and fuzzbusting bass. If you thought rock and roll was dead, buy this disc. From the opening track, down thru the perverse lyrics of "Baby I Love You", this is a rock and roll rollercoaster of blues, swampy southern rock, and pure fun. Shame Dan Baird never got the recognition he was due, there is precious few like him. Looking for hymns on saving the rainforests, or deep introspective self serving diatribes? Pass and find your inner child. This band rocks. This band kicks... . This is rock and roll...........Please make another!"

"These guys are so good. There isn't a bad track on this disc. The singer of the Georgia Sats, the brilliant production and guitar work of Eric Ambel ( ex Delords, present lead on Steve Earle ). Run don't walk and dig the vibe. They cover "Dancing Queen" better than Abba."
