Ballbreaker’s latest release “Hangman’s Tree” will send you back to the eighties the way they pump out their music in the vein of AC/DC. The traditional backbone of rock is in the heartbeat of Ballbreaker bringing you fast riffs and thumping rhythms. Vocally sounding like Brian Johnson (AC/DC) and Tom Keifer (CINDERELLA), Spock rips through some great hard rock tunes.

“Snakebite Blues” gets the blues going and the beer drinking started. I can just imagine a honky-tonk bar out in the west; those boys will be going wild. This is a band you will not be able to sit on your bar stool and say ‘impress me’; you’ll be at the front of the stage taking part in the party. Stephen Felerski and Mark Stevens do a fine job of whacking their guitars and slashing some amazing riffs on “Burning the Sky.”

“When The Hammer Comes Down” would fit the mold of a high intensity song by ACCEPT. Ending the CD is a cool version of the Beastie Boys' “Fight For Your Right To Party.” The CD is available through Perris Records so if you like AC/DC you sure will like Ballbreaker.
