TRIXTER is
a wronged band. Yet emerged in the 80s, at the height of American Hard/Glam
Rock scene, launched in 1990 one of the best albums of the genre , their
self-titled debut. However , with the advent of Grunge and popularity fall of
Hard Rock , the band was taken to ostracism.
But 'Human
Age' brings a renewed band, updated with the style, but still with one foot in
the past, when it comes to melodies and catchy choruses. The disc opens with a
typical arena Rock, "Rockin To The Edge Of The Night", which was a
good choice; "Crash That Party" is longer Sleazin',
"Not Like
All The Rest" is a typical sound to play in the party, with nice melody
and good backing vocals; already "For You" also follows a Sleazin’
line', especially the drummer Mark "Gus" Scott; "Every Second
Counts" is a semi-ballad, which will surely fall in the taste of those who
like catchy songs, and brings a remarkable riff and melodic vocals as well;
with "Beats Me Up" then yes, we have the syrupy ballad with acoustic
guitars, initial lull to fall in strong chorus. Indeed, it is one of the
album's highlights; "Good Times Now" brings a nice swing, vocal
chorus, finally, another party sound; with "Midnight In Your Eyes"
and "All Night Long" we note that the band steps in the past, the
melodies used mainly on guitar; "Soul Of The Lovin 'Man" is a big
heavier/rock a la Whitesnake; here comes the title-track pulling a sticky riff
from the start, prominent bass, and more backing vocals. It is a typical music
to listen to on the road, and it is the last album's sigh.
It proves that
'Human Age ' is one of the best Hard Rock releases of the year, perhaps, in
recent times. After all, TRIXTER always knew how to create catchy melodies,
catchy ballads and also forge 'heavy and big rock n’rolls', which inevitably
result in tasteful compositions and excellent result. It is hope that the band
can achieve greater coverage in relation to public and back to big shows of old
times, because it is an excellent band in technical quality and stage presence
. At least, they have a great album , and that's what matters most . The CD cover
is very nice.
