Backing vocals that are as cheesy and dreamy as you like I doubt the band gives a fuck and neither do I.\u00a0 this is excellent.\u00a0 The guitar break is Andy McCoy-like and we love that.\u00a0 It does remind me of the first couple of Hanoi Records and we all know that&#8217;s\u00a0never going to sound bad.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Lightspeed Getaway&#8217; is stack heel stomping 70&#8217;s t-rex\u00a0glam rock and why wouldn&#8217;t it be? it&#8217;s fantastic. &#8216;Eclipso\/Black Rain&#8217; is psychedelic rock and then the sludgy Sabbath heavy riff kicks in like some monolithic homage to the gods of rock has taken over as the band shows another side in some six-plus\u00a0minute rock out man its like if Ozzy was born with different equipment then Sabbath might have sounded like this &#8211; honest! Then something happens and the sidestep falls off a cliff as the acoustic comes out and the band heads off on some rock trip that makes zero sense and so it shouldn&#8217;t.\u00a0 Its a trip man and we just need to go with it and\u00a0ride this fucker out. Mental? you bet!<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Montana Motel Massacre&#8217; is like the band have channeled the spirit of Lynott and Malcolm young and are boogieing right outta the door. This might be short on songs but its right up there on quality Rock n Roll and they manage to cross genres with ease and mix it right up where many before them have failed miserably which is a testament\u00a0to the quality of their songs never mind their playing.\u00a0 My advice is just to buy\u00a0steal or borrow a copy just get it done and quickly!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thenuclears\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Buy Barrage Rock <a href=\"https:\/\/thenuclears.bandcamp.com\/album\/barrage-rock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Author: Dom Daley<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WZcGftHr5Xg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Power Pop \/ Heavy Rock \/ Alternative Garage rockers that a few heafty\u00a0ticks in our book but they have a lot of facial hair and RPM Online\u00a0has a pretty strict no beardy bands (oh and they wear double denim with pride).\u00a0 so we&#8217;re hypocrites, so what, If we want to relax our policy and let [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4678,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[1554,1555,1549],"class_list":["post-4677","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-review","tag-barrage-rock","tag-fake-chapter-records","tag-the-nuclears","post_format-post-format-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4677"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4677\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4782,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4677\/revisions\/4782"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4678"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
