Highbinder
...All the Way To Hell (Sin Klub)

By: Mike SOS

Gritty, down and dirty rock 'n' roll comes to you courtesy of Highbinder, whose latest 13-track release is laden with the kind of hard rock riffs that rattle your head and the brash attitude that so much of today's music is completely lacking. This Toledo, OH quartet's keen ear for melody, melded with its metallic pretenses, makes for quite the exhilarating listen, as tracks such as the grab your jugular style of "White Lie" and the stoner rock foundation of "Ward" are solid songs that rock fans across the board will dig. Highbinder, sounding like a cross between SLAVE TO THE GRIND-era Skid Row meeting The Bronx at a Velvet Revolver gig, wield the mighty rock sword well, sans the glitz and chock full of chunk. Aggressive without sounding forced, glossed over in all of the right places (such as the huge arena rock choruses that adorn the disc), and injected with the rock venom both vocally and musically, --ALL THE WAY TO HELL reaffirms the belief that good rock music is still being churned out underneath what the mainstream jams down your throat.
