Operator

Nothing To Lose (Explicit Album Version)
$0.99

Soulcrusher
$13.98
I wanted to like this album. I really did. I've been absolutely loving the revival of real rock & roll bands that's been taking place in recent years, and had hopes that Operator would be a band on par with Stone Rider, Black Stone Cherry or Endeverafter. Instead, all I'm hearing on Soulcrusher is a Soundgarden wannabe. Actually, the band seems to waffle between Soundgarden worship and what Motley Crue would sound like with Chris Cornell on vocals. I suppose vocalist Johnny Strong could have picked a worse role model than Cornell, but his imitation is so close that it takes away from what might otherwise have been a solid hard rock album.

Soulcrusher is a decent enough album I suppose, and it does rock (especially the monster title track), which counts for a lot these days. It's just not anything you haven't heard before if you already own at least one Soundgarden album. To be fair though, I'd rather listen to this than Audioslave.

You'll have to do it yourself with some of the available freeware for the purpose, but the verse "Operator, let's forget about this call; no one there I really wanted to talk to" makes a great ringtone.
