Alberta Cross — Taking Control

I’d enjoyed Alberta Cross’s “The Thief and the Heartbreaker” EP a year or two back which showed great things could be around the corner. “Broken Side Of Time” builds heavily on the folky-rock sound of that EP (indeed, several tracks are re-hashed here) signifiantly beefing things up, to great effect. Several tracks are comparable in sound to Kings of Leon with a side order of Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Pearl Jam and occasionally the slight sneer of Oasis (see: ATX), but still retain their own distinct style. “Taking Control” is just one of a handful of huge sounding slabs of rock that deserve to find a big audience.
