Does the word star in a band's name tell you something? Are you confused by the skulls in the cover or song titles like Diablo Rising and Unleashed? Don't be afraid! That's why I am here! To help you! Holy fuck! I sound like a telemarketing advertisement! Anyway, if there has been a long time since you last listened to a good Hard Rock release better keep reading...
STARRATS is a quartet that comes from Denmark, the country that has produced many great acts such as AUTUMN LEAVES, BARCODE, EXMORTEM, MNEMIC, ILLDISPOSED and many others. Formed in 2003, these Danish rockers have already released two full-length albums, Broken Halo in 2004 and now, Rebelution. Their new album, Rebelution is released through their new label, Perris Records (their debut album was released via the Italian label Adrenaline).
This band manages to amaze the listener from the first note! When you place the CD in your CD player and The Angry Song kicks in, you just know that you are going to party with these guys, party really hard! Their music is this dirty Hard Rock with many glam elements that will definitely not let you stay calm! Equipped with eleven great songs, STARRATS seem like they are trying to become 21st century's MOTLEY CRUE, and believe me, with a right promotion campaign they can do it! Rebelution is an album that people who like the last two SKID ROW albums will definitely love it. I know I sound like a child that just got a new awesome toy, but everything in this album is great! The guitar work is incredible, the drums are thunderous, the bass is like a bomb that tears everything apart and the vocals are something more than great! Rock is definitely alive, alive and kicking! Those guys will surely make your ears bleed! The production is really good and it is exactly in the style it should be, loud and dirty!
A message to all of you out there! Do NOT compromise with fuckers who think that dressing like a bitch is more important than the music. Check these guys out and you'll see that the music comes first, and after that, you can also take care of your image! As Nico says, I wish I was Britney Spears...
