ALBUM REVIEW: UltraBomb - Time To Burn
The title track has hard driving guitars backed up by powerhouse drumming.
Fear Your Gods goes down a more traditional rock format, with a nod to the likes of The Who.
Star is a rousing, emotive song and has a real heart on the sleeve narrative. It owes a lot to the early days of Beatlemania.
Stickman Vs Hangman is a slow burner, which explodes into a frenzy of guitars and bombastic drums, as if the unadulterated energy of The Cult crashed into the incendiary guitar sound of The Edge of U2 at his most visceral.
Faded Way is a glam stomper.
Bang Punk is another blast of melody infused pop-punk, leading onto the heavier overtones of Super Hero Shit, which is more aligned with the likes of early Guns N’ Roses.
Like The Wind starts off with a stadium filling anthemic quality, before once again hitting a frenetic and unrelenting pace pioneered so wonderfully by the Ramones.
Sonic Reducer is a truly majestic cover of the Dead Boys. It’s a song which showcases all the key elements of UltraBomb’s make-up and sound so magnificently in just under three minutes.
A melting pot of everything that’s ever worth listening to in punk music.
Time to Burn is OUT NOW!
