Strong songs that get in your head and don't let go.If you're not familiar with Logan, well neither was I until about a week or two ago. Logan is a 5 piece from Glasgow, Scotland who sound like they came from Canada. The band has been givin er hell since 2003, but has just recently made it over to the US shores, with their new release The Great Unknown. Logan has the power and aggression of a pissed off Nickleback mixed with the melody of Theory of a Deadman.
Logan is not your typical buzz band because they're heavier and they have some elements of grunge mixed into their music. Songs like Rock n Roll Way and Hallowed Ground have sort of a Pearl Jam vibe to them. You know, a cool groove mixed with a little blues. Nice! I think my favorite track on the CD, currently, is the power ballad (don't say it), Save Me. It is a late 80's style power ballad, that will get the lighters fickering (cell phones) lighting up an arena. The structure of the song is solid, with a great melody. I'm also favoring the following track Jump in Again, which is a slow rocker with a powerful chorus. All in all a solid CD.
Bottom Line: Solid modern rock with an edge. If these guys get the proper push, they will be a household name. Strong songs that get in your head and don't let go. A nice mix of modern rock with heavy blues.
