 Now the full length album has been released and I was really looking forward to this one. Since I named the EP release of this one, “Exile to the Velveteen Lounge, Vol 1”, the best release of 2018 the bar was set rather high.

 My thoughts that the album would consist of the five songs from the EP and some additional tracks turned out to be true. Now the big question was if the new song would live up to the high standard that the tracks from the EP release had set. And of course if they would sound the same in terms of sound and attitude. To my big re leaf this was the same Sunset Strip sound and the feeling of early Faster Pussycat runs straight thou the entire album. Still it sounds so fresh and new. The quality in the song writing is just mind blowing and so is the performance. This is without a doubt an album that will be in the top when the year is coming  to an end and it´s time to sum up the releases of the year,despite the early release.

 Just as the last time it´s almost impossibly to pick out any favorites among the songs so I won´t do that this time either. You just have to find your own ones.

 My only hope is that you give this album a fair chance. If you do that I´m pretty sure you will be very positively surprised
