Release Notes:

Crooked X release their self-titled debut album. The album was
produced by Spencer Proffer (Tina Turner, Quiet Riot, WASP)
and Michael Wagener (Ozzy, Skid Row, Poison). The band
consists of Forrest French (Lead And Backing Vocals, Rhythm
And Lead Guitars), Jesse Cooper (Lead And Rhythm Guitars,
Backing Vocals), Boomer Simpson (Drums, Percussion And Backing
Vocals) and Josh McDowell (Bass). This CD isn't the same as the
2006 release. Enjoy.

Crooked X have their bases covered. Opener “Gone” recalls the
greatest of grunge, while the metafictional “Rock N Roll
Dream” has AC/DC—and even their imitators like the Cult—on
lockdown. “Fade” phases shimmering guitar into cinematic
balladry, “Nail in the Coffin” offers pounding boogie that
would make Lemmy smile, and “Death of Me” is as emotionally
overwrought as it is sonically raucous. One would be tempted
to call Crooked X derivative, but they’ve only been alive long
enough to copy the copiers. - AZCentral.com
