Fist Of GodLast Gang ( http://www.lastgangrecords.com/ @LastGangEnt )
It's hard to imagine a band so talented amalgamating with so many illogical artists on this new album to destroy their reputation as an amazing group that not only defined some great Canadian indie danceable rock anthem tracks, but stole the country's hearts with their debut album The Looks. The list not only is large, but irritating with people like N.O.R.E, E-40, Ghostface Killah & Jahmal. These ghetto hip hop artists should have been left alongside the road with their their music. There are a couple tracks that are worth a listen, but not worth an album purchase. Heartbreaker stands out as the only decent one and is the only listen-worthy song as it has some great vocals from Al Puoudziukas & Jesse Frederick Keeler much like their material from The Looks. But alas the compliments stop there and I would urge a plea to the group to continue their awe inspiring remix work and stick to the formula that they somewhat created on their own.
