THIS IS THE BEST CD I HAVE EVER BOUGHT AND BELIEVE ME I'VE BOUGHT ALOT. I FIRST SAW THIS BAND PREFORM ON A BRITISH TV SHOW CALLED TOP OF THE POPS AND WAS BLOWEN AWAY AT HOW GOOD THE LEAD SINGER WAS AT PREFORMING HE MAKE'S THE CONTESTANTS ON CANADIAN AND AMERICAN IDOL LOOK LIKE AMATURES. THE REST OF THE BAND IS EQUALLY TALENTED. I TOOK A CHANE WITH ONLY HEARING THE TRACK "COME GET SOME" (AWESOME SONG) AND WAS HOOKED ON THIS CD IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT GET IT!! I PROMIS YOU'LL LOVE IT!!

This CD is amazing! There hasn't been a CD released at such a caliber and talent in the USA for a long time. I have over 2000 CDs and this one is at the top somewhere. If you want great rock and roll, then this CD is for you. A MUST HAVE!

This review is from: Rooster (Audio CD)

I cannot understand the negative reviews that are coming in for the Rooster boys. Why did you sell your ears on eBay? This album is a fantastic album, that blends rock with a little bit of pop, just enough to make pop music lovers (like myself) fall in love with them.

I waited almost a year for Rooster's album to get a release in NZ, and it was worth the wait. I love nearly every single track on this strong debut. Members Nick (lead vocals) and Luke (guitar) wrote most of the album tracks, and Ben and Dave provide the instruments to back up Nick's strong sexy voice.

So, just what are the good tracks on the album? Well, there are many. For instance, "Drag The Sunrise Down" is what I consider to the album's oustanding track. It's saved right till last, and rightly so. It's a rocking good song with crashing guitars from Luke and brilliant shouty vocals from Nick. You can make up your own mind what the song is supposed to be about. Other outstanding tracks include "Angels Calling" (a rock ballad with aaamazing guitar and vocals, such a sad song), "Deep & Meaningless" (another rock ballad style song but with more of a poppy feel then the rest of the album, was the 4th single off the album), "You're So Right For Me" (the 3rd single, more poppy then anything else, with Luke doing a rocking guitar solo in the middle), "To Die For" (another ballad, I reckon this is about as poppy as the album gets, it's beautiful!), "Platinum Blind" (a rocky song about being broke), "Come Get Some" (the debut single, a simple little rock song that got me into Rooster), "Staring At The Sun" (the second single, an underrated rock song with amazing guitar) and "On The Road" (this is definitely the rockiest song on the album, a heavy track about a road trip).

With that many brilliant tracks, you have to think that this is a good album. I love every track, and I love the Rooster boys. I can't wait till they do new material! Rock isn't my genre, but I can make an exception for Rooster since they're so good.
