Modern Superstar is made up from some previous members of Bullet Boys (Ryche Green) and Britney Fox (Jamie Fletcher). Don't get too excited, because the guys in this band are probably dudes, you are not too familiar with. Both guys were in later incarnations of these band.s after the originals had departed. That being said, the two have formed a band to bring back the sounds of hard rock from the 80's/early 90's, but unfortunately it fell a little flat.
Moderns Superstar's debut release is mediocre at best. The songs are tired and just don't have enough originality to stand on their own. With the resurgence in this sound over the last few years, some have tried to capitalize, but many have failed. To make it in the industry today, the sound can be based in that era, but you still need to keep it sounding fresh and I think that is where Modern Superstar falls short. The songs are okay, but not great. The only song that I kind of got into was their remake of the Steelherart/Steel Dragon tune We All Die Young from the Rockstar movie. They sound good on that one, but that was about the only one.
Bottom Line: Average hard rock. Songs are okay, but not great. Note: I have a pet peave about song titles, and this one sent me over the edge. Txt U gud' bye - Really????
Standout Tracks: We All Die Young and Generation Star.
