If ever a front man was on a collision coarse with fame, it has to be Joe Leste. The man is simply put magic with the raspy vocals and stage presences that melts candle wax, he rips it up on the latest BANG TANGO release on Perris records. The deep cutting guitar riffs and traditional power chords will set fires to the horizon. The songs are catchy with snaring hooks that will be embedded in the minds of music lovers forever.

Right off the bat “It’s All OK” is pummeling and your attention is needed as the band wrecks havoc. Mark Simpson’s guitar work is flying high with his trademark sounds and he really doesn’t get the credit as a high profile guitarist which he deserves. “Go, Go, Go” will be a crowd favorite, AC/DC fans should check this one out. I can just imagine Angus doing his stage prance.

Timmy Russell has a tremendous sound to his drumming on “Carry Me Up” which is an asset to the production quality on “From the Hip” . Oh no don’t tell me another rocker turned religious with “Mother Mary”. I feel the vibe of L.A. GUNS and GUNS N ROSES coming through on “Mother Mary” as the vocals by Leste have that Phil Lewis aura.

One of my favorite tracks is “Simple” giving way to a more melodic Leste yet holding a hard raw edge. “Simple” has an arena rock quality that will have fans chanting along with Leste, and could be a hard song to finally conclude.

Sensitive and seductive Leste come full circle after ripping the cords for the first nine tracks and mellows out with ballad as Simpson strums along on the acoustic. This is a great ending to a unique memorable release by BANG TANGO and should be hotter than dancin' on coals on your wish list.
