\"\"<\/a>The Electric Boys are one of those bands who seem to have always been around. I, like many others, remember their debut record from 1989, ‘Funk \u2013 O \u2013 Metal Carpet Ride’<\/em> (still a great title). Unfortunately, by the time their second LP ‘Groovus Maximus’<\/em> was released in 1992, grunge had all but killed off bands like the Electric Boys. Since then I have heard the odd track here and there and caught them live at a few festivals. I was surprised to find that this latest LP is the bands seventh studio record. It features ten tracks of funk n roll, including the first single\/video from the album Super God. <\/em>The animated video is well worth a watch.<\/p>\n

Instrumental opener ‘Upside Down’ Theme<\/em> kicks off the album with swift boot to the nether regions. ‘Never Again Your Slave’<\/em> is another belting track with echoes of Zeppelin\u2019s ‘Moby Dick’<\/em> in the main riff.\u00a0‘Globestrutter’<\/em> is another high point with some great lyrics sung with conviction by main man Conny Bloom \u2013 \u2018Hard rock is in my DNA\u2019, I must agree with that!<\/p>\n
