Freeways - Cold Front



1. One For The Road
2. Cold Front
3. New Drag City


Freeways have released their debut album titled "Cold Front." This album is one that has that mix of hard rock and classic rock which seems to be popular right now. These guys have a similar sound to that of Monster Truck or even The Sword, that type of music. It is interesting to see bands try to straddle this line. They have done an alright job on this album. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded to an alright standard. It is a bit grainy and has a lower quality sound, but it helps with the older rock style they are going for. The instrumentation is alright as well, the band can certainly play. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals here are done well. They are nice and clear, while still being a little bit of that old style to fit in with everything the band is going for. With the lyrics, the band goes for songs about saying things to someone before they leave for awhile, not waiting till things are too late, act on it, and relationships. These are things people can get behind at times, so we think these lyrics really work. If you are looking for a single to this album, there isn't one, so just pick a song or listen to the whole album, as it is only three songs, then you will get the feel of the album. Freeways have made a debut album that really shows the band and what they are trying to do. They have that classic rock sound that is becoming popular again and they have the talent. We hope to see more soon. Hopefully the band can get out more some people can get turned on to them. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
