Dustsucker: Jack Knife Rendezvous

Have a hankerin' for some early 80's styled Motorhead? Well, you could pull our your copies of Iron Fist, Overkill, or Ace of Spades, but you could also give a listen to the brand new album Jack Knife Redezvous from Germany's Dustsucker. With a sound very reminiscent of Lemmy & Co., plus a healthy dose of punk and power metal, Dustsucker have put together a fun album here, not much as far as originality goes, but give them some props for energy and determination. There are plenty of catchy and chunky rockers on Jack Knife Rendezvous, like "Continental King", "Bleed For My Strings", "Dead on Wheels", and "Out For Blood", all with speedy rhythms, gritty guitar riffs, gravelly vocals, and big, anthemic chorus'. After a while though, it's apparent that each song follows a very similar formula, and honestly, you'll feel like you have heard this all before. Still, you have to give Dustsucker credit for crafting a dozen songs that just drip with hard rock and metal energy that, despite the monotony of it all, comes across as completely honest and unforced.

Now, if they could only come up with a better band name...
