Review
Truth
be told I wasn’t going to review KVINNA debut album - This is
Türborock. As I didn’t like the album at all from my very first
listen. As the band felt they were trying to hard to be HIP and not
playing the most exciting of sounds. I left the album alone for a few
weeks and I decided to go back and listen to the album again. I even
read their brilliantly funny EPK that came with the album. (Whoever
wrote that EPK, My respect to you good
sir!!!).
Maybe
I was in a bad mood when listening to the album originally. However
the 2nd
listen I began to enjoy the album a whole lot more. Sure it’s not
the most original of sounds but KVINNA have created a hugely
entertaining and exciting debut album. Parts Stoner Rock, Punk Rock,
Hard Rock, Fuzz Rock and Classic Rock. Imagine
bands such as The Shrine, The Offspring, KISS and
Turbonegro joining forces
and releasing their own album.
This
is Türborock will be the fucked-up and twisted result. KVINNA blast
their way through 10 tracks of high voltage Hard Rock/Stoner Rock
sounds with elements of Punk Rock and Classic Rock allowing the band
to say a big “FUCK YOU” to standard genre conventions.
Most
of the songs only last 2 mins or so. The album is frantic and
fast-paced from the start. Songs such as Desert Witch, War Machine,
Nitefighter, Space Vampyres, Demon Road and Full Moon Ryders are the
ones that offer the albums most exciting moments.
The
vocals feel inspired by Dexter Holland from The Offspring and that is
no bad thing especially when matched against the different styles of
music that KVINNA hold within their ranks. The only part of the album
that I still have issues with is the lyrics. Sometimes the lyrics
don’t really go with the music that the band have written for the
album.
This
is Türborock will find an
audience with the Hard Rock/Stoner Rock scene within time. As it’s
not the most easiest album to listen to. However This
is Türborock is a
superbly produced and hugely entertaining album. If you like your
music being played at a 100 MPH and without a care in the world then KVINNA are the band for you.
