Prove It
'Prove It' the new album from the Expendables, four piece from Santa Cruz, CA ushers in a large arena rock sound coupled with a laidback California groove that issues new blood in an era littered with fashionable screaming emo bands, American Idol rejects, novice 3 chord pop punk, and single note solo rip-offs. The Expendables forge hessian rock, reggae, dub, punk, and fisting pumping dual guitar riffs into a unique fusion that pushes the envelope musically with a product as groovy as the funky northern California beach town they grew up in, but also with the rock and metal explosion you might have encountered at an early eighties Ozzy show at The Cow Palace.
This album is a large step up for the Expendables, both in production and song writing, and stylistically reveals them transcending the boundaries of what some might consider the California reggae rock genre. The bands constant touring, social networking prowess, and grass roots marketing combined with a loyal fan base, and presence through Stoopid Recods will make this album a highly anticipated spring release!
