Hard Action - "Yours Truly"


If you think you know what to expect from Hard Action's new single, you just might be surprised! The Helsinki-based foursome is closely associated with action rock, and you'll still hear punk and hard rock influences coming together on the brand-new 45 "Yours Truly". But this is by far Hard Action's most pop-oriented release to date. Both "Yours Truly" and the B-side "Walk Away" crank up thundering rock with massive FM radio hooks. Think less Hellacopters and more Thin Lizzy or Sammy Hagar! But even on this more consciously pop outing, Hard Action has never rocked harder. Those guitars absolutely blast! The band really benefits from the "bigger" production, and both tracks have me in air guitar heaven as I fondly recall late '70s/early '80s AOR. This is the sound of heavy rock flirting with power pop, and I dig it! "Yours Truly" is limited to 500 copies. Get it today from Open Up And Bleed Recordings!
