Rebel STorm, coming out from the Seattle's area, is back on the track this year with their new and second album. As there was on their first album, you'll get some great blues-rock songs and when you hear the guitar soloing, you know where their influence is coming from, directly from the deep south. But, you'll also get pure southern rock titles, with different influences such as Molly Hatchet ("No settled man", "Midnight traveler"), to the Allman Brothers ("A little lovin'", "True tales of the black forest", "Treat me right"), and even the Outlaws ("Stateline"). A really nice album which should convince many many fans, while waiting for them to come and play in Europe, which is scheduled for next autumn (we also heard, they were about to play one gig in France).

With a name like the one they use and their "Molly Hatchet" on "No guts no glory" look-alike, we expect to have a real southern rock album. They sure have their roots in southern rock music, but that's not their only roots. They also incorporate blues influences in their music. The albums starts with "Talkin ' bout love" and "Mississipi Moon", two classic blues. "Talkin all i can and "What your lovin means", are southern rock songs. "Bad girl" is more of a "Moon Martin" song than what we were expecting. But don't get wrong, this is a good album but I was expecting something more "southern".
