The Star Spangles – Bazooka

Artist: The Star Spangles

Title: Bazooka

Label: Capitol

Rating: 5.5/10

The Good:
“I Don’t Wanna Be Crazy Anymore” – A new anthem for the Ritalin nation.
“If We Can’t Be Lovers” – A distorted love song. Think anti-ballad.

The Marginal:
“Stay Away From Me” – Don’t come around here no more… now that isn’t very nice. Rock ‘n’ roll is always best when it’s being mean.
“I Live For Speed” and “Which One Of…”– This is quite color by numbers rock ‘n’ roll.
“Science Fiction/ Science Fact” – Sounds a tad too much like a White Stripes clone.

The Ugly:
“Crime Of The Century” – Bad.

Frankly: The Star Spangles are a rock band. Nothing great, nothing bad.
