Here's a band I never gone on with initially; I guess at the time of its release this self-titled album just lacked the glitz and attitude to really shake the ground; and yet here I am decades later enjoying it for what it is; a solid no thrills hard rock opus boasting a number of simply melodies. Trouble Tribe was the sort of band which simply didn't have the bite to succeed and yet it wasn't really their fault; their modest harmonies and occasionally infectious, pop-edged chants could well have put them in the limelight; but it just didn't happen. 'Here Comes Trouble' was most certainly the sort of track that could have been an accidental hit but that simplistic hair metal design - but one which seemed to lack attitude - didn't put them in good stead and so this debut album was all she wrote. It's worth giving these guys another chance though...
6.5/10
