Wrong place, wrong time...big sounding, should have made it big, like so many others, but never picked up by the record companies, and so faded into nothing. A mix of everything bombastic, never driving itself to the grunge cess pit, instead always applying a hint of Zep against those sharp corners of what could have been stadium rockers. Certainly influenced by the likes of Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, but with elements of so much else, big production groove rock, and even Jason Bonham on drums. Slots itself into no category, but not because it's so original, but simply because it emerged at a time when you were either grunge or nothing. Cool vocal delivery, all very casual and swaying but with muscle and plenty of dream-like visions. In other words, a lost record that never finds its place or its feet, but still worth a listen if you're one of those alterno-metal muso's. Cover says it all really, pretty faceless.
6.5/10
