"Closer to the Brain" by Superbug (Hard Rock Artist from Massachusetts)

The talented group, Superbug, releases another outstanding Hard Rock CD, "Closer to the Brain." These artistic musicians take their talents and weave a collection of fantastic Rock songs with an appealing style, which is sometimes reminiscent of the '80's, but with a modern touch. They take their influences from bands such as Pink Floyd to Rage Against the Machine to compose these terrific songs. The title track, "Closer to the Brain" has a superb keyboard solo (which is something not often heard today) and a great groove rhythmically and vocally. Hold onto your seats as you hear the song, "Dirty Electricity," as this song has searing guitar licks, gritty vocals, and a tight drummer who keeps the beat flowing in double time. The last track, "Cake," has a mellower tone but still maintains the enticing sound this tight knit group has to offer. If you are a fan of Rock music then, "Closer to the Brain" is an album you will really enjoy.
