Review

...straightforward heavy rock songwriting that few would dare call "adventurous," but if the formula worked so well for AC/DC, Motörhead, et al., then why not the Rods? After all, several cuts here boasted infectious choruses as good if not better than even these heavy-hitters usually turned out -- namely on "Waiting for Tomorrow," the anthemic "End of the Line," and the downright spectacular "Burned by Love," all of which showed that frontman David Feinstein's vocals were just as accomplished as his guitar playing. On another tip entirely, harder, faster, heavier bruisers like "No Sweet Talk," "The Night Lives to Rock," and the title cut seemed tailor-made for the metal-loving European fans. - 5/5
