I was pleasantly surprised to hear such a good song from a band that I had never heard of before. The sound is a throwback to my parents' music and being from the X-gen I am a true fan of all sorts of music. This band is definitely going somewhere and I will surely be getting their full album as well.

This song sounds very much like a Bruce Springsteen sort of song. But it doesn't feel like a bad cover. It's original enough that it doesn't irritate me. Instead it evokes the mood/sound/style of Springsteen in the best way. The lyrics are not exactly uplifting, but then neither were most of Springsteen's. It's a good song and it makes me interested in hearing more from them.

No thanks! This sounds like something out of the early 80's. We heard all the good stuff then, so why would we want the re-runs now.
