\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/strong>I have to admit to knowing bugger all about Dictator Ship apart from they’re Swedish (of course) and they play Action Rock. But this ain’t you’re usual foot-to-the-floor \u201cSuper Shitty…..\u201d stuff, this is an altogether more soulful proposition with a cool 70’s Paul Rodgers meets David Coverdale (proper 70’s \/ early 80’s Cov) vocal vibe. Turned on? I am!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cYour Favourites\u201d has a vintage lo-fi feel, just like the proper albums that you nicked out of your cool uncle’s stash of vinyl when you were a kid. So let me grab you by the hand and take you through \u201cYour Favourites\u201d and see if it does exactly what it says on the tin.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Kicking off with \u201c In the Heat of the Night\u201d. As you listen, you can imagine the band huddled around a couple of live mikes in a secluded Swedish cabin blasting out their own brand of gutter-level Action-soul. The lead vocals sound shared across the band and together they produce one hell of a sweet sound. This bad boy has groove to spare.<\/p>\n

Next up is \u201cSavage\u201d, which boasts a video all of its own. The music is frantic, but the cool vocals pull it all together sweetly. It’s MC5 meets Jesus Christ Superstar!<\/p>\n
