Explicit Content, the previous Crushead release, finally has its follow-up. Crushead is a German band that describes themselves as Crunch 'n Roll. Basically it's melodic rock music with some rap influences (like in Doubt). They proclaim they're also inspired by hardcore and crossover. This isn't very evident on Can You Handle This? Heavy rock and catchy lines go hand in hand on the new album. The combination of clean vocals and rap influences with rock makes me think of DC Talk. The result is a fine German production. The singer's English pronunciation could be better though. Some of the songs I liked are Ready For Take Off, Cuts Like A Knife and Behind The Curtain.
