Look At Me Now (Radio Mix) / Zombie (Full Version) / La Ultima Hora (Spanish Version) / Petroleo (Spanish Version) ALBERTS RECORDINGS
Breed 77 have a sound that rocks like System Of A Down without the schizophrenic quirkiness and firebrand political sloganeering, but with added flamenco guitars and Latin influences. In truth, Breed 77 make similar noises to Nickelback or Creed, this is slick hard rock that sets its sites on mainstream radio; big blustering choruses and crunching powerchords set firmly in place.
Lifted from their latest long player IN MY BLOOD (EN MI SANGRE), new single LOOK AT ME NOW finds the band dishing out a predictable rock ballad, pianos, orchestral sweeps, cliched guitar solos and all; all very Aerosmith and Guns N Roses. Think November Rain meets Arms Wide Open and you’ll be in familiar territory. Backed up by a hard rocking take on The Cranberries ZOMBIE, this is Breed 77 going for that mainstream radio crossover market, all very slick and calculated really.
System Of A Down by way of Creed and Nickelback, Breed 77 continue to plough a predictably generic route with LOOK AT ME NOW, a single that only goes to further cement their position as a band standing at the precipice of stadium slaying superstardom however predictable their sound.
