Recorded in ’99, from what I’m reading, in their home studio with the aid of a drum machine—the band didn’t acquire an actual human drummer until 2002—is this self-titled release from Rocket City Riot. A band with a high energy rock sound similar to New Bomb Turks or Electric Frankenstein. Read the band’s website and they are still active, and, apparently, working on new stuff, which, this is what they said not me, “sounds more like Roy Orbison meets the Lemonheads.” Huh?
