alfierose Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I bought their self titled album a couple of weeks ago. I'd never heard of them but it came up in a music you might like list at Amazon. I think the lead singer was on a TV talent/idol type show so I was a bit dubious but I actually really like the album. He has a great voice and there are some really good tracks. I wouldn't be surprised if GnR was one of their influences.Anyone else listened to this and enjoyed it...or not?

CheapJon Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) Singer (Jay Smith) actually won "Idol" in Sweden a couple of years ago. He had some "drug related scandals" in the press. Career never took off, now he's touring bars I think, played in my town a couple of months ago.I've never listened to Von Benzo, I think it was his band before Idol that he's gone back with now after his "fame". Sounds like Nickelback IMO. Edited February 20, 2013 by CheapJon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfierose Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Didn't know any of that. I've never listened to a Nickelback album but I know their name is mud round here. Maybe I should have kept quiet lol! I like this album though, maybe he should have stuck with it rather than going the idol route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfierose Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 A couple of my fave tracks are MTV killed rock and roll and Bad father bad son. There is a good acoustic version of the latter on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
