RAWHIDE
"Branded for Life" (Patac
Records; 2011)
Reviewed by Jeff Rogers
A lot of bands are using the 50's promotional try to
introduce their music to the masses. A single here and a possible EP that
follows; it makes for a good test when you are trying to find out if your
"sound" will make a buzz among fans. Rawhide has started their musical chapter
with a four song EP entitled "Branded for Life." These guys have a raw sound
with a Motorhead vibe. It's rock'n'roll and it tears down the accent wall of
music because each instrument is forefront.
One more interesting note about how music is delivered these days: It's all
digital. You can download tracks for free and if the disc is offered for free as
well, then it’s a good day to visit the web. Some bands are aware of how their
music is heard and even prompt for a pay-what-you-want choice. At the time of
this writing, this disc is such that you can pay what you want. Click on the
"buy" link above to get your own copy.
Rawhide will be working on a full-length disc because four tracks can only take
you so far. I look forward to more head knocking!
Rawhide: Mr. Geil Heis (Rob) - Vox, Guitar; Captain Twofinger (Erik) – Bass;
Little Mike - Guitar, Backing Vox; Warslaughter (Carl) – Drums.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
