Straight up rock

The D4 were a fast-paced, dirty riff band that sadly disbanded before their time, but not to fear they simply got re-incarnated as The Black Stars. These new Byron Bay favourites aren't going to let their fans down in a hurry. After gaining a huge recognition from their last EP, The Black Stars have made a hard and fast second release titled Money Or Your Life; a blitzkrieg raid of chunky hard rock. Produced by Phil McKeller of Grinspoon fame, the EP is full of up tempo tracks with catchy pop hooks, fast chunky riffs and party-worthy vocals. Straight to the point from the first song, the intensity of tracks never lets up from the opening Farfisa to the ending Incompetent, with no shitty rock ballad in sight. Although this band isn't reinventing any stylistic advancement, or changing the face of music, they're rocking out at lightning pace. This is one band to inspire air guitar in your bedroom.
