There is something deeply spiritually uplifting about unrefined rock ‘n’ roll. There is something incredibly absorbing about watching the generations beneath us discover the sumptuous beauty of this organic and primal music. They may exist through the prism of the many aspects of extreme metal, but really when it comes down to it, Dool play heavy rock.

This is a wondrously authentic rock record. It is brim full of ideas and youthful exuberance. It captures beautifully the energy, excitement and escapism that can only be achieved by young people with nothing to lose playing rock ‘n’ roll. The whole record crackles with that elemental energy of pure creativity.

It bridges the many gaps between genres by deftly identifying where the joining factor is. Quite simply it is that uplifting and affirming spark that comes from concocting music. There is a naïve adrenaline here that puts all of us cynics to shame. It is an album that once again makes us fall in love with rock music and makes us realise that for all the different genre classifications it is simply about songs that shine a light into the drab monotony of usual existence.
