White Horse
[demo]
Reviewed by Doug Van Pelt
This trio from Pennsylvania sends us some straight-ahead hard rock (10 songs worth) and upfront lyrics. There's a funny cartoon on the back of the lyric-less J-card that shows one man questioning, "Hey, where's the lyrics?" and another thinking, "First, it's lyrics, then he's gonna want music too!" This bit of humor (?) shows the band not taking itself too seriously. Even though they have some good riffs, like the Cinderella/Scorpions-ish "Take me Back," the lack of aggression and poor production sonics will keep this music off the radio. Ultimately, this demo showcases a band's good songwriting talents, but it seems as though it should be thought of as a song demo and not a custom album. For ordering info, write: 631 Mercer Rd, Greenville PA 16125.
