4.0 out of 5 stars This is a different Masterplan, December 6, 2004

For the record, those of you looking for the European metal band with Ark/Helloween/Iron Savior members should know this is a different band, even though it comes up in the same listing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dictators meet The Fleshtones, May 2, 2004

By 

hyperbolium (Earth, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Colossus of Destiny (Audio CD)

God Bless Andy Shernoff for pulling together Keith Streng and Bill Milhizer of The Fleshtones and Paul Johnson of Waxing Poetics for an old-school rock 'n' roll session. Heavy shades of Shernoff's Dictators and The Fleshtones, mixed with flavors of surf, '60s garage and '70s glam. Three of the four contribute tunes, including Shernoff's late-Dictators era, "What's Up With That," Johnson's Ramones-y "You're Mine," and Streng's buzzing surf instrumental "Picketts Charge."

Not surprisingly, these rock 'n' roll old-timers rework some unusual covers, including Peppermint Harris' "I Got Loaded," Lloyd Price's R&B lament "Just Because," and Hank Ballard's answer-song "Annie Had a Baby." The latter provides particularly fertile ground for the band to Rock. This record is fun from end to end. It's too bad Lester Bangs isn't alive to review it in Creem.
