Nothin' nasty about this killer release!, August 8, 2008
Leave it to Sweden to show the rest of the world that the spirit of real rock & roll music is alive and well. While American radio obsesses over the latest moody Coldplay single, Sweden keeps serving up pure, fun, rock & roll bands like Crashdiet, Hardcore Superstar, Hell n' Diesel, and of course Babylon Bombs.
Doin' You Nasty is the band's second album, and while it was originally released at the end of 2006 in Japan (proving once again that the Japanese appreciate good music more than the rest of us), it is finally seeing the light of day in America thanks to Locomotive Records. The best comparison to Babylon Bombs' highly melodic Sunset Strip-inspired rock & roll sound is probably American Heartbreak, but you can hear elements of classic Motley Crue and L.A. Guns as well. This is very catchy stuff, and is downright fun to listen to.
I understand that there is a need for rock music that is intellectual, or artsy, or introspective, but sometimes you just want a rock & roll album that makes you want to call up your friends, hit the bars, and have fun. That's what Doin' You Nasty is all about. If you've been missing the kind of rock that puts a smile on your face, do yourself a favor and check out Babylon Bombs. They're part of a rock & roll revival along with bands like Airbourne, Black Tide, Endeverafter, Dirty Penny, and Stone Rider, and are giving fans of real rock & roll music a lot to be happy about.

Look USA....Europe is dropping Bombs!, April 8, 2010
So this is their 2nd Release, and I will have to say this release brings everything their first album didn't. Some of the things I like about this band is how they Rock Bluz their songs up. Jaded Heart starts off the album and you can immediately hear the Bluz they bring....and bring it they do. Louder the 2nd song lives up to what you'd think when you hear LOUD and HARD anthem type music! And again, the guitar solo classic bluz...these guys rock! Not to bore one with a critique of the album....this release is well worth the price, as is their 1st album, and their 3rd. Stop reading and starting clicking...& BUY IT ALREADY!
