CHICKENFOOT!

I just finished listening to 5 tunes off of the new record by Chickenfoot that comes out in June. With the exception of one track that was a bit slow the other 4 kicked some major ass.

Who is Chickenfoot you ask? It is the new group put together by Sammy Hagar. It includes Micahel Anthony on bass (Van Halen), Chad Smith on drums (Red Hot Chili Peppers) and guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani on lead guitar.

"Soap On A Rope" starts out strong and finishes stronger. "Oh Yeah" may be the best of the five tunes I have heard. "Get It Up" is strong but lacks something, not sure what yet. "Down The Drain" starts off slow, but kicks in and turns out to be a kick ass tune. "Learning To Fall" is a slowed down ballad, was not too impressed with this one.

Over all real good stuff. They have developed their own style, it is hard rock that definitely has an edge. They don't sound like VH, nor The Wabaritos nor the Cili Peppers..and Satriani's guitar work has no resemblance to his solo work. This is a good thing.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
