The Swedish band Imperial State Electric founded by Nicke Andersson (former of The Hellacopters and other projects) after The Hellacopters disbanded. Here the third full-length album of the royal named band.
If you wanna hear the combination of 60-70’s rock music you’re on the right way. The fundamental rock split up to many pieces according by recognizing technique of Nicke Andersson. For instance, “Reptile Brain” reminds of early Alice Cooper works. “Stay the night” is a good ballad of never-ending romance. Another sweet track is “More Than Enough Of Your Love” with female vocals that gave the sound of the deep touchiness. Hand-calling “Eyes” waves The Beatles vibes so you can dance. “Born Again” revived the best of classic rock’n’roll with a little bit garage riffs. All the tracks has strongest choruses and the and simple verses, the music is joyful and easy to listen and follow.
They are deadly serious. I’m not a reptile that’s why I can’t understand the widest sense of the Imperial State Electric work. In my humble opinion, that’s too pop for rock and roll.
Tracklist: 01. Emptiness into the void 02. Underwhelmed 03. Faustian bargain 04. Reptile brain 05. More than enough of your love 06. Dead things 07. Apologize 08. Stay the night 09. Eyes 10. Born again 11. Nothing like you said it would be 12. Down in the bunker |
