"After having lead a life in the shade for way too many years old Gillan colleagues Bernie Tormé and John McCoy came back bringing a musical battering ram with last year's debut of their band GMT (Guy McCoy Tormé). An outstanding, raw brutal study of merciless hard rock with a slightly punkish attitude. Now the follow-up is here. Opener "Punko Rocco, with Dee Snider on guest vocals, starts out putting the balls firmly into place with a well aimed horse kick. They have, also on this album, managed to get the same dirty sound as on the debut. The music pricatically wallows out of the speakers. It's heavy, dirty and phat, without being killed in the mastering process. Just listen to the guitar intro of "You Can't Hold Me", which rips the air in front of the speakers to pieces. Songwise it's a nice continuation of the debut, that is - raw garagy hard rock with primitive energy, Tormés unpolished vocals and personal guitar playing, backed up by the rhythm section from Hell. A hard package after Christmas!" (janne stark)
