4.0 excellent | Robbit | November 13th 18 | Aussie hard rockers Rose Tattoo offered this fierce debut record that has sadly been overlooked in the States. It was too easy for some hard rock fans to write them off as a second rate AC/DC as they did tread some of the same musical ground of pounding out boogie rock licks at high volume. That was my initial appraisal until I had a listen to their first album. The first three songs are a powerful 1-2-3 punch that most hard rock fans should find to be impressive. My favorite song by far is the menacing, slow grind of "The Butcher And Fast Eddy". Vocalist Angry Anderson goes into storytelling mode as he relates the tale of two foes who wind up in a fatal knife duel. Although the AC/DC influence is undeniable, this isn't simply an imitation of their more successful mates. I'd rate this as at least a great record, but I'd be willing to nudge this up to a solid 4 star rating.

3.5 great | Nagrarok | November 17th 09 | It's Australian blues/hard rock from the late 70's, and it sounds very much like AC/DC. Gotta love it or hate it.
