DANKO JONES
We Sweat Blood (Universal)
Reviewed by John Sekerka
Danko Mach III. Canada's caramel rooster rocker takes his blatant three chord anthemic pulses to the next level. Major guitar riffing, lusty lyrics and the odd cowbell; simple stuff for simpletons in simple times. Think not, just rock. If there was ever any doubt that Danko would make it big on the world stage, this should erase it. Not only is the sound lean, mean and stripped down, but Danko himself seems to be more concerned with (gasp) music than fashion stylin'. Danko's hat wearing days appear to be over - good thing cuz it was becoming, er, old hat.
