Their latest effort,
Sweet Poison, opens with the guitar-driven anthem “
My Kinda Crazy,” which kicks off the album in a worthy manner. In addition to rousing anthems,
Sweet Poison features authentically rocking Americana tracks like “
Playing With Fire” and
“Sweet Gloria.” “Warpaint” is undoubtedly a massive track in which the band unleashes its intangible energy with hard guitar riffs and powerful drums, while
“The Usual Suspects” and
“1st Time For Everything” impress with their catchy choruses. Tracks like
“Dead Of Night” build on a distinct melody and develop into strong stadium rock anthems. With songs like
“All I Ever Needed”,
THE NEW ROSES also show their softer side. The strong mid-tempo rock ballad revives the atmosphere of Guns N’ Roses’ moving ballads, while front man Timmy Rough passionately presents the full range of his voice, which can also be heard impressively on the touching acoustic track “
True Love“.
Sweet Poison is an outstanding rock album with an impressive hit density, seeing the band outdo themselves again and again, reviving true 80s rock. Hold on tight, because THE NEW ROSES shift up a gear and take you on a journey to the horizon of American rock grandeur!
Timmy Rough on the new album:
“When we recorded Sweet Poison, we took all the bad vibes, all our struggle and disappointments of the last two years and turned them into this incredibly positive, high energy Rock n’ Roll album. We don’t bitch at all, we wanna move forward and take our audience along with us. We stayed on our musical path, in fact I’d say we even went back closer to our roots and added some more of our Blues and Southern spirit while still keeping the catchy melodies of our last records. But hey, talk is cheap, so turn it up and have some fun!“
