Sorry And The Sinatras – Highball Roller

The punk n rollers that make up Sorry And The Sinatras would make Ol’ Blue Eyes roll over in his grave but I don’t think they give two shits about it. On “Highball Roller” they head for Backyard Babies territory and never look back. It’s all piss and vinegar with plenty of booze, sweat and loud guitars. On “Burns City Burns” they come close to licking the heels of The Bronx but overall they still lack that band’s songwriting skills and sheer power. The rest of the songs on here aren’t as furious, which is where the Backyard Babies comparison comes in.

It’s nothing new and honestly, I’ve heard it better before. But overall “Highball Roller” is an enjoyable album that’s better than a lot of other albums by bands that’ve tried it with the same sound and whose name I’ve long since forgotten.
Score: 6 out of 10
