The Answer // Everyday Demons

Northern Ireland's The Answer release their second album this month and after the success of their debut 3 years ago, it could not have come sooner for fans - especially as their fans include celebrities like Jimmy Page. After supporting the likes of the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith, they are currently touring with AC/DC on the U.S. leg of their tour so are sure to break the States soon and it is easy to hear why. This 4 piece have a classic old American sound, without mimicking anyone else, and their influences are evident –Lynyrd Skynyrd, AC/DC and the like. Their tracks have the power of bands like Creed, but more sincerity, and the 'Easy Rider' feel of 70's Southern hard rock but with a little more depth. The album charges right from the get go with opening track 'Demon Eyes' and 'Pride' is the kind of track you can't stay still to. While The Answer are not going to change the face of music or produce revolutionary new sounds, they certainly know how to make a great album full of driving tunes and introduce a whole new generation to classic melodic rock.
