Let me start off by saying this album isn’t bad. These are good musicians creating good music. It’s just that nothing about this album doesn’t give me Deja Vu. I understand that a band started thirteen years ago may have roots and influences in early rock, but I wish that they had incorporated their influences in the music and created something more original instead of just playing like those influences. I will admit, the guitar on “Sand Hill” is redemption for the whole album. It has a great, authentic, old timey feel to it.
For an album that seems to have been done time and time again, Super 400 has pulled it off quite well.
Initial Thoughts: This is definitely not my cup of tea. I don’t care much for the vocals and I feel like I’ve heard this many times before.
Now: I realize that for a concept that’s not original or ground breaking, it’s very well done.
Best Track: Sand Hill. The guitar is great and I think the song will translate really well live. This song is a masterpiece.
