Kick In The Eye - Rock And Roll Needs A...   (CDR)

(Kick In The Eye Music - www.kickintheeyemusic.com)
[Genres: country, country rock]

This is a collection of enjoyable country rock tunes from Vancouver, Canada's Kick In The Eye.  Contained within are two cover songs and three original pieces.  "Hurricane," one of Kick In The Eye's own songs, is a delightful ditty that is sure to get stuck in your head.  It is definitely influenced by some of The Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds"-era work.  "Thirty Miles" is another happy, bouncy number that will be sure to leave you humming its melody for hours on end.  All of these songs use a similar formula, taking a happy, sugar-coated approach to their music that will definitely slap a smile on your face.   While they're short on content in some places, they make it up with pure fun.
