Billy Talent – The Ex

June 6, 2004 by Rich Leave a Comment

This track has a lot of bite to it – Billy Talent are quite an immense rock band with tremendous fire power and are easily able to please. It is not surprising to see the sort of reviews that this band have got – they are all very upbeat and praise the band strongly which is really not surprising due to the superb quality of the band.

This track has been taken from their self titled album and will most certainly rock your socks. With crazy drum beats, brilliant guitar riffs, burbling bass lines, and vocals with more bite than a rabid rotweiler the band are sure to put a smile on your face and have a new fan under their wings. This is an amazingly good track on this promotional CD- it really does promote the band as it has opened my eyes to just how good this band really are. It is no surprise to see the band on such a high calibre label as they have tremendous style and playing ability. I really enjoyed listening to this band and would second the Metal Hammer comment ‘Worthy of your immediate, undivided attention.’ This band really are something special but you have to hear it to believe it – you will not fully appreciate just how special the band are until you have heard their superb music. The beat to this music is such a driving one – it is terrific, you just have to love it – it is fact paced rock mayhem from the band and is extremely pleasing to the ear. I love the vocalist of this band – he has such defining characteristics and his voice is just something out of this world – it really is pure quality and I really cant describe it in any other way than pure genius. The vocals are what make this track so special – without these amazing vocals then chances are that Billy Talent would merely be another face in the crowd, but thanks to the vocalists raw talent the band are really shown up to be something special and worthy of anyone’s time.

Check out Billy Talent if you are a fan of any sort of rock music as they really are an amazing band that are definitely deserving of at least a couple of minutes of your time. Make sure you check out this band and remember to head on down to their website www.billytalent.com at some point as they really are a hella cool band and if you miss out on this band then you really are missing out on something quite seriously special.
