"We're GODS LONELY MEN"
Gods Lonely Men are not The Lurkers,
well they are, except in name. Original Lurkers Pete Stride, Nigel
Moore and Esso have got together with a new name that gives a nod to
the past and a bunch of songs from the present. It's hard not to
compare GLM to The Lurkers, so I'll try not to. I've not got a lot
to go on as moneys tight so I haven't been able to buy a copy of the
album, but I have heard the three tracks posted on their website,
which are worthy enough of a review. GLM have a dark and heavy
sound, while still maintaining those trade mark Lurker guitar
licks'n'riffs and that rhythm. Vocal duties are handled by Pete,
with his distinctive vocal delivery. Every Night's A Story, is a
catchy little chugger of a tune. Surviving is a half spoken half
sung tune that gets into yer head and buzzes about. Chemical
Landslide which is available here to download for free is a no
frills but a lots of thrills blast of old school punk pop. A welcome
return to Pete, Nigel and Esso, and on the strength of these three
tracks, if I had it, I would splash the cash on a copy of the album.
So if you've got it, go spend it here!
