Classic.įrenetic and catchy Delirious are next up, and it will surely be another live favorite. Yup, we sure need ’em! One of Hanoi’s greatest asset is their ability to also write great ballads or what is also known as “slow songs” (Million miles away, Don’t you ever leave me, Until I get you), and In my darkest moment is especially touching, strings and soaring guitars, big piano and heartfelt saxophone solo from Mr. Watcha want comes scruffing along, out of control (or very nearly) before the excellent single, People like me, struts by- a great sing ‘a long, with cool lyrics. Starting the album with some dusty riffing as an intro, Hanoi gets going with the fast-paced Obscured, playing to impress, and hitting us with the chorus, and making my feet tapping along with great intensity. Sporting a healthy dose of quality songs, attitude, energy and performance wise, the tightest Hanoi-album ever, Twelve Shots on the Rocks may be the best Hanoi-album ever! Now the album has finally arrived, and I’m absolutely delighted with Twelve Shots on the Rocks. ![]() They also released “People like me” as single, proving that Hanoi could still play and write rock music like no-one else. I was lucky enough to catch their now legendary appearance at Sweden Rock Festival, and the band was just smoking! Featuring only two original members, Andy McCoy and Michael Monroe, they got the crowd going with a set stacked full of old classics, and some new songs that were up there with the old ones. It is with a big smile on my face, that I greet one of my all time favorite bands: WELCOME BACK! Out of the limelight (though never one of the biggest selling bands) for years, dogged by various problems and the trends of rock ‘n roll forever changing, Hanoi were but a distant memory of sleazier days gone by. One of the truly legendary bands of the eighties, Hanoi Rocks returns with a big bang, or maybe we should call it an explosion?! This record has got to be a big surprise for a lot people. ![]()
