CD REVIEW: MOTHER by Electric Mary




MOTHER by Electric Mary
(Listenable Records)

Veteran Aussie rockers are back with their fourth studio release, 'Mother', and just like the band's previous outings, this is a album that grabs you by the collar and demands you to turn up the volume knob up as far as you can. Your car's speaker system will be tested, believe me. In your face
hard guitar rock fronted by stadium-rocker vocals and played with an unusual depth of character and soul.  Electric Mary is comprised of, Rusty Brown on lead vocals, Peter Robinson on guitar and vocals, Brett Wood on guitar and vocals. Alex Raunjak on bass and Spyder on drums. These guys know where their strengths lie and how to use each member's immense talent to their ultimate advantage. Hats off to Rusty Brown who once again delivers vocals with a fiery-fueled purpose while the dual guitar pyrotechnics of Robinson and Wood are simply superb with Raunjak and Spyder providing the band with its rock solid foundation.  The quality of the songs and the song writing are spot on! You can play it straight from beginning to end without wanting to skip anything. My favorites are  "Gimme Love", "Hold Onto What You Got", "The Way You Make Me Feel" and the lead off single, "Woman". Truly a breath of fresh air in the boiled-down, almost-dead, pure hard rock genre. This is a ass-kickin’, gutsy, bluesy infused hard rock album for music lovers who want to experience pure rock ecstasy. Put simply, Electric Mary are the real thing, and they rock like a Mother!  - Tony @ The Dedicated Rocker Society
