As soon as I saw the front cover for the Turbowolf
single, I thought these guys are trying to rip the
Gallows off, the artwork for the single is so similar
to a Gallows t-shirt that I own that features a
shark on the front with the Gallows writing going
around the top half of the shark, and that is exactly
what Turbowolf have featured on their single artwork
but obviously it says Turbowolf! Instead of the
Gallows.
The main single ‘Read And Write’
is pretty good, it doesn’t have the chaotic
sound that I was expecting, but it does have some
great guitar riffs, tasty keyboard sounds and
a huge chorus that is executed in such a smooth
catchy way, it’s hard not to be interested
in ‘Read And Write’ as it is a well
written and produced song.
The b-side on the other hand, well to be honest
I still can’t believe my ears, the b-side
is called ‘Seven Severed Heads’ the
song is pretty short running for just over 1minute
but it sounds exactly like how Anti-Flag do, the
vocals are the same style and pace and even the
guitar riffs are very Anti-Flag sounding, I even
started to wonder if these guys didn’t copy
an Anti-Flag song on to the promo by mistake but
after checking out their my space that can’t
be the case as the song sounds exactly the same
there.
I am well up for checking out new bands and new
songs and I have to say that I do like the music
that Turbowolf have created but what really puts
me off them is that they are so unoriginal from
the artwork to the b-side we have heard and seen
it before and I don’t see why these guys
should get something out of what other bands have
done better in the past.
2/5
