Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

After a previous full length CD and a couple EPs, the Canadian based trio's power is undeniable. A ferocious live act, they combine the wallop of Van Halen with the more angular sonics of Metallica. Incredibly tight, they can turn on a dime, wrapping muscular chords and pile driving rhythms around the front man whose name is also the band's moniker. Jones can shriek and scream, but never without some potent reason to have done so (such as on "Home to Hell"). The band also knows how to craft flat out irresistible hooks, albeit with the weight of flying anvils. "I Want You" mixes in the pop smarts of Cheap Trick, but with twice the decibels. -- David Greenberger

You know how I tell if an album is great or just good? If every single song is great, then the album's great. If not, it's just good. This album is great. Stellar music production/engineering and songs that I sing along to. Plus you can get it really cheap through Amazon. Read the review in Maxim and bought it and am very pleased with myself for discovering a great new band that may have a very bright future ahead of them if they keep doing what they did on this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars These guys are the real deal., August 13, 2005

"We Sweat Blood" simply makes your jaw drop. It's that good. The production quality is crisp and tight, yet doesn't interfere with the rawness of Danko Jones' sound. And what a sound. Everyone's going to compare them with other bands to try to describe them. The most obvious is AC/DC mostly because of the sheer bare-bones power-chord energy mixed with a blues sensiblity. Just add a heart-thumping fuzzy bass underneath it all. Your subwoofer's going to love this one. Also, I found myself cracking up at some of the lyrics. Good stuff. From track to track all the way through to the end, you quickly come to the realization that you just picked up one of the best CD's you've heard in a long time.
