Cruizzen – Free Ride 2014
On December 5, release the German hard rock band Cruizzen album “Free Ride” by the company Pure Rock Records. The five guys are offering 13 new song of flawless Rock’n’Roll, with might be some roots from „Down Under“ included. Catchy riffs, raw whiskey-drinker vocals similar to those from Brian Johnson, a driving rhythm section, gives CRUIZZEN some AC/DC touch.
The title track however with some slide guitar is a quote to the legendary Rose Tattoo. But the organic and powerful sound is offering some small metal influences too, the six-strings show some Iron Maiden touch here and there. And the track „It’s Over“ has a bit of a Guns’n’Roses vibe. But even with those big names mentioned, the Bavarians have their really own sound, extraordinary classical hard Rock’n’Roll.
