From Austin, Texas come the Strange Boys who with “Be Brave” have released their second album in as many years. Just like on their debut “And Girls Club” these guys jingle and jangle their way through a dozen songs that sound like the young Stones, Ray Davies or a Stoned Davies with some of the Strokes’ attitude on retainer.
They might very well steal from every single chapter in rock ‘n roll’s songbook but they come to a convincing whole that manages to keep me smiling all the way throughout the album.
Score: 6.5 out of 10
