This is an album that is full of raw and hard hitting bluesy heavy metal songs in (as they say themselves) 'AC/DC - meets- Accept' style. Växjö based Bullet has done it again. Hell Hofer and his band deliver exactly what you'd expect. Nothing new under the sun or any love-ballads in sight. This is testosterone metal songs for the males...

I saw them at Sweden Rock Festival in 2006 and they had just released their debut album. They showed me and the rest of the audience that they were a band with both charm and talent. 'After the following and the successful album from 2008 'Bite the Bullet' and several live shows they have grown to a professional live act!

Hell Hofer on vocals still sounds like a weaker copy of a young Brian Johnson. No technical guitar solos or high pitched vocals here. Basic rock 'n' roll with hoarse vocals, dusty jeans, JD, boots, easy guitar-accords, rhythmic drums, cool beer and maybe some motorcycle notice in the background.

In my view Bullet is one hell of a live band and this music-style is much better live than on a disc. A raw, naked energy that tries to get through my speakers. I've heard it before and can't appreciate it to the max anymore, but I will love it when it's presented on a live stage, that's a fact!

Best tracks are: 'Midnight Oil', 'All Fired Up', 'Full Pull' and 'High on the Hog'. If you love the previous discs from Bullet then I am sure that 'Full Pull' is a must in your CD collection. You know exactly what you will get. No frills, just straight forward rock 'n' roll.
