Cool, 'hair metal' (if you must call it that!) that struts with full pomp, '91 being a little to late for these guys but upon reflection this is a superb album. So pro', so sure of itself, anyone would think that on this record Tyketto had the world at their feet. Bigger, and better than any Kiss record (mind you, what isn't!) 'Don't Come Easy' deserves any accolade thrown at it. Danny Vaughn's crystal clear vocal is soothing on the ears, effortless as he soars on opener 'Forever Young' which could have been an accidental gem of a generation. Sadly not to be, but don't let it slip away just yet. Tyketto remind me of a less, say, funky Extreme, 'Wings' is a wonder, a power ballad of explosive magnitude, almost veering toward an '90s 'alterno metal' feel, 'Burning Down...' follows suit, sprinkled with keys. Tyketto somehow mesmerise, maybe i wasn't expecting it and I'm wondering just how many other bands of this ilk and talent slipped through the net whilst more bloated, and less talented acts got paid. 'Seasons' has an ultra special feel, almost Kik Tracee in its breeze and ability to lift the senses. The band aren't afraid to pump their fists either so 'Don't Come Easy' is always a solid rock record but one blessed with harmony. Well done.Tuesday 17 May 2011
