CD REVIEW (TRANSLATED FROM ITALIAN)

Four years after the debut of "Babylon Boulevard" hark back alive The Prophets Of Addiction with this back as a record titled "Reunite The Sinners". The band led by former Pretty Boy Floyd bassist Lesli Sanders incorporates the onset stylistic coordinates, one sleaze rock of yesteryear, smoky and alcohol at the right point and takes us with these ten compositions in the suburbs of the suburbs of the decadent and infamous large American cities, where still lingers the spirit of Johnny Thunders, Stiv Bators and the Ramones.

simple and direct songs that are now already from the initial breakthrough "As We Fall", an anthem potential for all the marginalized, the outcast, the different, the eternal looser that feed on dreams, of hopes and of authentic music like this . "Welcome To The Show" does not escape from and the chorus that says the historian triptych "Sex Drugs And Rock'N'Roll" gets inside you like a deadly poison, "Kings And Queens" instead reminds shamelessly "Space Oddity" White Duke at the top, but then he finds its own soul that is enriched by a valuable only DC guitar DeVille of Poison. "Razor's Edge" has a darker trend than the other pieces, but the roaring guitars and hoarse voice just enough give expressiveness and pathos to this song, while "Spare The Bullets" condenses the most fascinating rock New York Dolls school with the 'punk attitude York rock of the 70's.

"Heart Of Mine" has a dark soul and decadent and seems out of the pen of The 69 Eyes, whereas with "Postcards From The Grave" the influence of Tyla master of The Dogs D'Amour become evident, as the concluding " exist "is the only ballad of this platter scratch the soul deeply.

This "Reunite The Sinners" can be criticized because it does not invent anything new, or because it is based on the usual corny cliché, but he does great with pieces by the great fire and the impact immediate. The fact is that the desire to press play again becomes almost uncontrollable, and this is already success rate.
