	This is better than most of the MySpace pointers I've been 
subjected to, though I gotta say the band wears its influences pretty 
clearly on its sleeve. There is no shortage of the Mighty Riff here, but 
there could be a bit more excitement about the vocals and drums. If this 
is a rock juggernaut, which it certainly sounds like in places, its 
steering is still a bit basic. But I'd happily go and see them and shake 
my hair and stuff. There are five tracks up now, so I guess things are 
moving on... Yours,
