Imagine modern, harder edged versions of classic Southern rock songs. It’s not too tough to wrap your head around. The kicker, though, is that this is a German band. They manage to capture the southern rock twang and bring a real raw texture to it. I like pretty much everything here. In some instances, I like these versions better than the original. This is quite a cool, if unexpected, set.

This is a cover of a 38 Special tune. I’d have to say that I’m not a big fan of that band. Well, I like this version quite a bit. There are things here that make think of Kiss. Other elements remind me of ZZ Top. The secondary female voice adds quite a bit of variety. All in all, this rocker is southern in texture and a catchy rocker.

This time we get a cover a Stevie Ray Vaughn tune. I love this high energy rocker. It’s a real screamer and features more prominent female vocals than some of the other cuts do.
