Thunder--Thumbs Up
Nothing earth-shaking here, but it's a fun listen. Really dig track #3 because it's weather-related even though it's not really yet it fits in with the band's name because that is weather-related. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Second song is kinda just there, but it's ok. WOuld tell you guys all about my Thunder story but think I already did so I won't waste your time with it.
Thunder was a band, I heard at first at a friends house in...I dunno..1994? They sounded dated even then, but they did somehow appeal to me. I never bought an album, but I did consider it a few times. My friend bought 2 or 3 or more of their albums, and they sounded kind of good, especially if I had had some beer before listening. Maybe lots of beer. Nowadays I would probably have to be completely wasted on LOTS of beers, to even remotely like this. Everything, meaning the name of the band, the title of the album, the title of the songs, the album-cover screams to me: THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT FOR NIELS AGED 52. But it probably would had been something for Niels aged 16. Couldn't help myself, writing this.
There last album was my pick of the year.
I haven't listened to this one as I've got it on order. But I'm looking forward to it. A Lot!
Now I know where you got the idea to post a Fogerty album next week...
It does have that vibe, at least the opener does. Though they diverge from Fogerty on the remainder, the vocals do still sound familiar in that CCR way and at least there is some soloing going on! Really dig The Chosen One! Nice tune... And I didn't need any beers to say that! (Kidding Niels of course, I don't drink, never touch the stuff, OK maybe a little but not a lot and definitely not beers!)
I'm torn on purchasing as I'm not sure the closer convinced me to go there, but the first 4 are making difficult. Need to hear more...
