Title: Teenage kicks
Review: Damone seem to have happened upon the magic formula for making great uplifting rock and roll. Hard to believe they lost their main songwriter after the first album, you certainly can't tell. Some great riffs to be had too, and how often do you get to say that these days? I don't agree that the singer is an Avril Lavigne clone. Make your own mind up, but try not to tap your foot or bang your head to "Out here all night", surely the best rock song of the last few years. There is a real gang feel to this CD also, but in a good way. As in a group of people keen to ram home the same message. If only "hair metal" in the 80's was this good! I agree there is an 80's feel however, but it's partly due to the song quality and the lack of inclusion of current trends. By not trying to be cool, they seem to have come out the other side to be cool anyways. Damone makes me wish I was a teenager again, and that's gotta be the very essence of great rock and roll.
Is the review positive or negative?
