4.0 out of 5 stars I went expecting Kelly Osbourne and got Lita Ford, June 15, 2008

When I first heard that Lauren Harris had put out an album I immediately thought, "Here we go. Another untalented, pampered young'un of some rock star (in this case, one who can't sing in the first place LOL) is trading off her father's name to make a buck." Like I said, I thought she was Kelly Osbourne.

But then I went to her MySpace page because I am an open-minded kinda guy and listened to her music. It was pretty darn good. Not the kind of music one waxes long and eloquent concerning its cultural and/or social significance, but the kind to be put on and just loved for what it is: simple, straight-on, noisy rock music. This young lady has a good voice and a good sense of song structure. I liked the lyrics and the music. Like I said, I got Lita Ford.

I loved this and I can't wait for the next release. What else need be said for an album?

I saw her open up for maiden twice and on the Sowhere back in time tour and thought she did a great job out there and had allot of energy. I picked this album up and found it to be good listen and is chocked full of memroble tunes and has a cool cover of UFOs Natural thing.

Many make the claim that all Lauren Harris has going for her is being the offspring of one of the most famous bass players & song writers in the world of metal for the past 30 years.

Certainly her father's connections within the music world helped her. I have no doubt about that. But if one actually listens to the album they will find that Lauren does have talent. Now if you're looking for something that sounds like Maiden or that has every song written about war and/or death, as is the case with most Maiden tunes, you won't like this. You'll find that she's not simply a younger female version of her dad.

It has much more of a rock sound than metal, but I enjoyed it.
