4.0 out of 5 stars Stripped Down Rock!, November 2, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Relentless (Audio CD)

Finally, a veteran rock band doesn't "redefine their artistic vision" and release a watered down album of sissy rock! Right from the opening track "If You Want It Heavy(I Weigh A Ton)", this album reaches out, ... smacks, and then continues to pummel the unsuspecting listener's dance music/r&b/techno rock head until they submit. Songs like; "Mr. Evil" and "Heaven Don't Want Me(And Hells's Afraid I'll Take Over)" are sure to make some hide their Creed cd's. Brian Johnson of AC/DC growls guest vocals on "Kill The Sunshine", another catchy but powerful tune. If you like rock without a twist, buy this album now!.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4 on the floor metal, April 13, 2003

This review is from: Relentless (Audio CD)

This is the first Jackyl cd I've purchased and won't be the last. This is a straight ahead metal band that writes catchy tunes with good choruses. I think that holds true for every one of the 12 songs on this cd. I really don't consider any of them a "filler", and that's rare for me. If you've heard about the chainsaw playing, it's cool on the record and live, but that's not what they're really about. They don't indulge in fancy and/or extended arrangments. Don't get me wrong, I love that too, but there's a time for "4 on the floor" metal that's beautiful in it's simplicity, like AC/DC's Back in Black. Now, if you want to call it 80's, I won't argue with you, but I like it. Their lead singer's voice, the centerpiece of their sound, is similar to AC/DC's Brian Johnson, but they're unique enough that I'm not thinking of AC/DC when I'm listening to them. I'll also mention that I've had the opportunity to see them live twice in the last year, and they're a really fun band to watch. They're also more than happy to sign autographs and take pictures after the show. How many bands do that? I'll make my final pitch for this album this way. I drive 85 miles a day, and this is the only cd I've had in my car for two months. The only other cd that has ridden shotgun with me for even close to that long is Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil and that's because I can't find Back in Black.
