3RD STRIKE


"Lost Angel" (Hollywood Records)

Reviewed by Snidermann

3rd Strike is obviously a band straight from the streets and they depict a dark and dangerous lifestyle with raging music and thoroughly thought-provoking lyrics. 

3rd Strike deals with some very potent issues, including drugs, gangs, lost love and loneliness with a simple, yet powerful manner. Some bands fall into a trap of making music that deals with real live problems and so dark and depressing it can't really be enjoyed. However, 3rd Strike makes music that has a social conscience, but with a glimmer of hope. 

Okay, sometimes the lyrics get a bit sappy, but the overall effect is worth every minute.

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.
