Block Buster - Losing Gravity

[Stefan]

Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the release of BLOCK BUSTER's debut album, “Losing Gravity”. 

Block Buster are an up and coming band from the Finnish hard rock scene and one of the newest signings to Frontiers’ New Breed roster. Young, full of energy, and ready to carry the rock ‘n roll torch into the future, Block Buster are yet another gem from the robust Nordic hard rock scene. Mainly influenced by rock music from the 70's and the 80's, the boys' list of influences includes many of the classic acts of those eras. Add a good dose of modern rock vibes to the mix, put it in a giant blender, and you will have the band’s mind-blowing debut "Losing Gravity”! 

The band says, "Our style is a combination of many things. We grew up listening to "classic" rock, but we also like many of today's artists from different genres, who tend to influence us just as much. So, we guess it's a mixture of modern and retro. We like to think the result is quite fresh, as we don't really try to recreate the sound of the 70's or the 80's, we rather want to sound like a 21st century band. All in all, we just play rock music."

If you're going to a Block Buster show, you will witness an energetic, loud, sweaty & skull crushing rock 'n' roll spectacle performed by four young men having the best time of their lives.

Not really my style, but not bad as far as execution goes.

Hmmm....not really my style either but I still kinda like it for something a little different than my normal stuff.  Definitely a modern vibe....rocks pretty good though.

Will probably give this a few more listens and see how it settles....could see it going either way for me depending on my mood and maybe what a few of the other songs sound like. 

Something to keep an eye on.

A little different than my normal taste but I dug it for some reason.  Look forward to hearing more.

These guys kick ass. Been a big fan since the beginning. 

This earlier song is my fav. from them.

Cool chorus but I don't like the rest of it or their vibe. I wouldn't write the album off based on this, but I don't love it.

That's not too bad. 

Dunno, I'm about 50/50 on this one.
