REVIEW: Quick Fix, Get Yours (With A Gun)
- Linda Scott
Quick Fix roars out of Boston with a good, old time rock 'n' roll album. The band is rock and roll through and through, and it's rock with plenty of attitude. Think Guns N'Roses, AC/DC, T Rex, Thin Lizzy...you know, bands which follow - and live - the sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll lifestyle.
From the opening chords of the first track, "Devil's Daughter", Quick Fix shows you how bad a bad rock band can be. If Guns N'Roses was "the most dangerous band in America", Quick Fix sounds like they're trying to take the title away.
Singer/guitarist Jake Zavracky has the key position in Quick Fix, and the man is up to all challenges. His sensual voice is hypnotic and raunchy like Axl Rose or Jim Morrison.
The band is a metal trio of Boston roommates. Their low down sound is just right for summer, with "Rampage" and "Bay of Pigs 2000" are perfect for shattering hot nights. It doesn't hurt that the singer has a sexy voice and wears tight red leather pants. If you love incendiary rock and roll, you're going to love the ringing guitars and thumping bass lines of Quick Fix. If these guys can live long enough and stay together long enough, they're going to make it to the top of the rock charts.
