│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ NITROGODS came about between ex members of ║ │
│║ Thunderhead and Primal Fear, with the addition ║ │
│║ of bassist/vocalist Oimel Larcher. Their new ║ │
│║ album ôRats And Rumoursö is a pure and straight ║ │
│║ up Rock n Roll album with throaty vocals, ║ │
│║ rocking riffs and a thumping rhythm section. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Opening up with title track ôRats And Rumoursö I ║ │
│║ was very much reminded of Motorhead with some ║ │
│║ meaty fast guitar riffs and some very gritty ║ │
│║ sounding lead vocals. This is a great track to ║ │
│║ get heads nodding quick right at the beginning ║ │
│║ of the album, with a great catchy chorus. ôGot ║ │
│║ Prideö follows this up with more of the bandÆs ║ │
│║ high energy rock sound, with a really great main ║ │
│║ riff and some pounding drums throughout. ôIrish ║ │
│║ Honeyö feels like a really heavy version of ║ │
│║ something The Clash might have done, with ║ │
│║ stabbing guitar riffs and winding basslines. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ This is a hard rocking album throughout from ║ │
│║ bluesier material like ôRamblinÆ Brokeö which ║ │
│║ has a bit of a NAZARETH vibe to the vocals with ║ │
│║ heavier riffage backing it, to songs that border ║ │
│║ on surf rock like ôAutomobile.ö ItÆs all pretty ║ │
│║ good stuff, and the band has quite a diverse ║ │
│║ sound, keeping their own sense of style but ║ │
│║ changing it up plenty enough between songs to ║ │
│║ keep it interesting throughout its 43 minute ║ │
│║ runtime. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ One of my highlights was ôBack Homeö which ║ │
│║ combines some great vocal delivery with some ║ │
│║ great rock guitar riffs. ThereÆs also an awesome ║ │
│║ guitar and bass duel about midway through the ║ │
│║ song that sounded great and showcased the ║ │
│║ individual talents of the members well, followed ║ │
│║ up by some great riffs and solos too. ôBMWö is ║ │
│║ also a pretty great track with lots of high ║ │
│║ octane riffs throughout. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The album closes on ôWhiskey Supernovaö which ║ │
│║ has a great furious riff to kick things into ║ │
│║ motion for the last track. This one is great, ║ │
│║ with thunderous drums, some great bass playing, ║ │
│║ awesome riffs and roaring vocals. This finishes ║ │
│║ the album on a very energetic and fun note, with ║ │
│║ a solid chorus too, ending on an epic crescendo. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The production is pretty solid, and everything ║ │
│║ can be heard fairly well as the album goes on. ║ │
│║ The vocals and guitars sound the best here, but ║ │
│║ the drum sound is very good as is the bass. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ ôRats And Rumoursö is a very good album from ║ │
│║ Nitrogods╕ with plenty on offer for those who ║ │
│║ like old school Rock n Roll produced in a more ║ │
│║ forward thinking way. ║ │
