The Answer knows their Hard Rock roots, bravo!
The Answer is an exciting new Hard Rock band that I highly recommend. I bought this CD/DVD due to the value you are getting here and knowing that The Answer is not hype. All 4 songs are excellent, the DVD has great footage of the band which also includes tour footage and interviews. It is a thrill to see these young guys perform and hear their style of Hard Rock. The Answer is obviously influenced by legendary Hard Rock bands such as Led Zeppelin, Bad Company, and Foghat, (to name a few). The Answer is currently opening for AC/DC, that is an accomplishment in itself. I really enjoy hearing the harmonica again in Hard Rock, when done right this undervalued instrument can add a ton of flavor to a song. "Never Too Late" kicks off this EP on the right note, exemplifying the Hard Rock heaviness that The Answer has inside of them. These guys are dandy good musicians, it is quite the listen! I look forward to The Answer releasing a full album in 2009!
There are no lyrics in the liner notes, however the photography, retrospective type face and artwork is a fantastic tribute to how Hard Rock appeared visually decades ago. Kudos to the art direction on this EP.

This is The Answer
If you are a fan of early 70's rock (ie: Free, The Faces, etc), combined with blazing lead guitar (ie: Angus Young of AC/DC), then this band is for you. Very bluesy, hard rock with tons of soul. There is no other way to describe their sound. They have completely ignored whatever is currently popular and play the music they like with conviction. They have a live CD that is only available via their website. Paul Rodgers himself comes out and sings a couple of Free songs with them and proclaims that The Answer is the best thing since Free. These guys ARE The Answer!

The Best "New Rock Band"
The Irish rock band The Answer has made their first album released in the US with this one here, and God they are talented. In their songs, it sounds like they are trying to imitate the style of Led Zeppelin and AC/DC put together, and they have done it perfectly! These Irish are the perfect "New Band!"
