Hudson Falcons - Desperation & Revolution
GMM
Ahh, punk rock for the working class. These guys are going to be the next
Dropkick Murphys. They're a quartet hailing from New Jersey, and they play
politically charged punk rock [incredibly well] for the masses. The CD
clocks in at a whopping 41:07 [which, to me, seems like a lot for a band of
this type], but the time flies by so very quickly. The singer has a lot to
say in each song, too, and he does it with such a frantic growl that you
can't help but get psyched up for song after song. Like I mentioned
before, there's a significant Dropkick influence here, plus maybe some
Bouncing Souls and Ann Beretta. And of course, there's elements of the
old-school punk and oi! bands intertwined. So if you're looking for a good
CD to come home from the factory every night and crank up while drinking a
brew or two, look no further: the Hudson Falcons are your band.
