THE NEW CHRISTS
We Got This! (Smog Veil)
Reviewed by John Sekerka

Forget all that old school talk, cuz this is the real old school. Rob Younger turns back the clock and delivers a vitriolic assault of blissful twin lead guitar rock that schmoozes with the best Australian sides ever waxed. Radio Birdman, The Saints, Lime Spiders .... there was a time when bands from down under coulda ruled the world, and perhaps now the time is finally right. Former Birdman growler Younger resurrects his golden throat to compliment Mark Wilkinson's nimble guitar runs in a rare thrilling music marriage. The blistering disc yields not one but three killer cuts with the title track, "On Top of Me", and "Sunny Day Sun." The summer officially begins right here.
