Iron Chic
Spooky Action

Iron Chic are back with their first new music since their split with Pacer. For some, a couple years isn't long, but waiting for new Iron Chic is like waiting for a ride at Disneyland. As soon as you finish the thrill of one, you're automatically anxious to get in line for another, and the wait is unbearable. No matter if it's 30 minutes or 2 hours. With Spooky Action, they wet your tongue just enough to tide you over for the new album.

The first track, "Spooky Action at a Distance," lets you know the band hasn't lost any momentum. They're as catchy as ever. Vocals and lyrics are still tugging at your heartstrings. Lubrano is at the top of his game. "Less Rest for the Restless," is a simpler song that still manages to get you stoked for more. The last track is a cover of The Ramones', "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg." Iron Chic's guitar tone and The Ramones' melody are a match made in heaven. Won't say it's better than the original ('cause it's not), but they give it a little something that gets you listening harder.
