Danish rockers Electric Guitars are ready to unleash their latest album Freewheeler, and what a great record it is. Lush harmonies, catchy hooks, fantastic musicianship, and great production values make ‘Freewheeler’ a thoroughly enjoyable listen.

Electric Guitars is the brainchild of Soren Anderson and Mika Vandborg who have worked with some of the best in the business, (Glenn Hughes, Mike Tramp, The Darkness etc). The bands sound is a blend of hard rock and power pop, and there are some fantastic tracks on offer here. Opener Dopamine kicks off with a great chug along riff and a driving beat courtesy of Morten Hellborn (cool name). A super catchy song with hooks that grab you from the first listen. Hot Blooded Woman is next up, a tale of um…. a Hot-Blooded Woman! Some dodgy lyrics don’t distract you too much from the song which showcases some excellent guitar work from Vandborg and Anderson.

Nervous Breakdown is another ear worm that really sticks in your head after a few listens, the song talks about how society is falling apart all around us…yep! Zero Four stomps around like a spoilt child before the chorus pulls you in. Cut Loose has a classic Thin Lizzy vibe and yet another monster chorus. The album’s title track drives us along in the fast lane with hooks galore and some wonderful guitar work.

There is plenty of variety in Electric Guitars’ sound, a combination of AC/DC, Aerosmith, Cheap Trick, and Disneyland After Dark. The music is very accessible, short, well-crafted songs that really make an instant impact. The band gel well as a unit and you can really feel the chemistry between the band members.  

Freewheeler is a piece of solid rock that delivers on every level. If you’re a fan of the bands I’ve mentioned above, you will absolutely love Electric Guitars. What are you waiting for? Go and check them out!
