STAR CIRCUS – Separate Sides

The marvelous outfit known as Star Circus, which hails from London, is the real fucking deal and delivers a scorching slab of fist-pumping, arena-sized rock loaded with more hooks than you and I deserve. Oh, you want superb melodies, massive riffs, crashing drums, and raunchy vocals too? Fret not as these awesome musicians have got all of that covered. What truly gets me excited is how effortlessly they make it sound and how lively and vivid it all is. If Thin Lizzy, Def Leppard, early Aerosmith, and Sweet had a jam and a few cocktails, it would sound like this, and what is not to love about that? The album’s ten tracks sound timeless and are an utter delight to these ears.

Memorable is the keyword here and Separate Sides is filled with unshakable ear-worms and poppy melodies. Simply put, this is a deeply satisfying discovery full of spirit and vigor. Cheers and thanks to Stampede Press for sending this one my way. This beauty should be out in early December, so keep an eye out for it.
