New Big Wreck single

[severinsteel]

The last album was super disappointing compared to their other two albums. I listened to it once, and haven't since. The single 'Albatross' was great though!

Great band. This sound kinda like The Police to me. Still like it

John Suhr stated in a thread on TGP that the 2nd solo on the tune is a Suhr Modern into a Badger.

I liked most of Albatross except for a few tunes on the back end of it.

It's not Dark Side Of The Moon...but damn Albatross was pretty great.
Really looking forward to anything Ian puts out, not much inspires me of new lately.

While Albatross was different than the first two albums, I thought it was killer from start to finish. The production is out of this world good, and I thought the song writing was great. Different strokes I guess...

Sounds killer to me.

Remember, they weren't popular in the 90's because all the 1 chord hacks got the attention.

Meh......."The Oaf" and "That Song" charted pretty nicely at number 9 and 32 respectively.

I was hearing them on regular rotation on the radio in Nashville back then.

That album came and went without much notice. I saw them at a club with maybe 50 people in the audience. They sounded like a Led Zep influenced band not a punk or alternative band which was getting all the attention in the 90's.

I love their first album but since the 90's sucked they played clubs instead of the stadiums that they deserved to be playing.

Like these guys deserved?

That chick in the middle isn't bad looking.
Pursed lips and all.

LOL!
And that son....is why the public ran from 80's music into anything that was a big change...thus 90's grunge.

Yep! What's even funnier is some the 90's haters say all the 90's bands were just modern versions of punk bands... yeah whatever as if they all sounded like Green Day. There were more bands in 90's that had more in common with Led Zep, Black Sabbath, Cream, Motorhead etc than any punk bands. I'm not saying there wasn't punk influences but they were not just punk influenced.

So very true!
