            Want to take a step back into the Eighty’s, but with the addition of 90’s and present language and sexual innuendos? EndeverafteR is your ticket. This band uses a soaring classic rock sound, today’s language and monstrous guitars. This is evident in the albums opening tune. “I Wanna Be Your Man” is an absolute assault on your ears. The high energy from frontman Michael Grant followed by those thrashing guitars. “Baby Baby Baby,” the lead single off the album, is highlighted by infectious lyrics and outstanding vocals and backing vocals. They do however repeat a few too many times during the 4+ adventure. “Gotta Get Out” starts off a little like “Room 21” of Hinder, but quickly loses it with a nice tweak. “Next Big Thing” shows the softer side of the band. Although its softer than the rest there is still emotion and passion throughout. “Road to Destruction” is a lean mean guitars and darker sounding vocals. “All Night” is a straight up head rush with its popish rock style and all 80’s flashbacks you want. “From the Ashes of Sin,” offer up more great guitar work and emotion. Overall I think this is a pretty solid debut. They will need to gel and mature as a band, but with those adjustments they can only get better. They have a lot of talent and Grant has great writing ability. There are some songs that will get air play right now plus get them into the club scene. Watch for more from this band.
