99 CRIMES – Self-Titled (Album Review)

My fellow music lovers! Have I got a treat for you? How’s this sound . . . “No glossy glam here, just adrenalized vocals, face melting guitar, and a rhythm section that registers on the Richter scale!” That’s a direct quote from the press kit that came to me with this album. I couldn’t ask for more of a description than that! The Band hails from Austin, Texas. I Present their self-titled album, 99 Crimes.

The Album

Some of you might recognize the name of Paul Lidel former guitarist for Dangerous Toys. Well, I’m here to tell you . . . Don’t expect that here on this disk, because you’re not getting that. Yes, you still have some great grooves and slamming riffs and drums that are off the scale, but it’s a beast of its own. Paul Lidel handles the vocals here and guitar as well with Chris Jordan beating the hell outta the skins and Jeff Lynn keeping in the pocket with the bass guitar and backing vocals. 99 Crimes is a standout, in your face hard rock album. Out now on Perris Records, you can hear the great songs like the album opener, “Devil In Your Dreams”, and the first single, “Coming Down Like Rain”.

If this album doesn’t grab ya by the …you know whats then there are even more to beat ya down. Songs like “Move Like That” and “Do It Over” should be enough to convince you, unless you’re dead of course. All I can say is this…If you don’t listen to 99 Crimes and aren’t tapping your feet or bangin’ your head within the first two minutes, then you need to self-check because something is definitely wrong!

Peace!
