The Vibes are three rebels from Aarau, Switzerland,
they ain't got no label but apparently they got
big balls, The Vibes consist of MoJo - vox / the
guitar / whiskey bottles, Matlock - vox / the bass
/ organ / bluesharp, Stuntman Jack - the longhorn
drums. playing there brand of rock on there debut
album Whiskey, Sex & Rock'N'Roll.
Title track Whiskey, Sex & Rock'N'Roll, pretty
much sets the tone and style that your your going
to get over the course of the album, its simple
overdriven instruments, simple bluesy rock. its
southern rock that sounds like its inspired from
the 90s era. The sound while some what lively
it fails to impress, the vocals are gritty, the
guitars are over driven with the odd half decent
solo thrown in and the drums are simple and solid,
they mix well, but just don't really deliver that
killer vocal lick or decent riff. For self proclaiming
rebels there hardly grabbing you by the balls.
Sadly the songs all sound the same, same guitar
and bass sound, and fairly uninspired drumming,
even the vocals can be ignored rather easily,
which is a strange thing to say really. Even though
the songs are fairly short they seem to drag on
a bit. Unfortunately there isn't too many good
points other than that the members of the band
are competent musicians, but sadly lack any original
ideas.
If you like your southern uninspired rock then
get, Whiskey, Sex & Rock'N'Roll by The Vibes.
Out now.
2/5
