New Yorks TYKETTO came down like a bolt out of the blue in 1991 when they released \u201dDon\u00b4t Come Easy\u201d on Geffen. The single \u201cForever Young\u201d was well received and their future seemed shiny and happy. But along came grunge and past laurels on Headbanger\u00b4s Ball vanished. In 1995 came the belated \u201cShine\u201d. Danny Vaugn had left to treat his wife, and original members Brook St James, guitars, Jimi Kennedy, bass, and Michael Clayton, drums were joined by Steve Augeri of TALL STORIES. The sound was gentler to say the least. Augeri soon left for JOURNEY and the band soon expired with the live album \u201cTake Out & Serve Up Live\u201d. The members went on with their projects, and VAUGHN no surprise contained Danny, Michael and bass replacement Jamie Scott. In 2004 came a reunion in full, followed by another string of dates in 2007. An alternative and unearthed album was released, a supposed farewell. They couldn\u00b4t keep out for long and 2008 and 2009 saw they playing more gigs and festivals. And now this new album, the first new studio album since almost Adam and Eve. How does it sound?
\nOpener \u201cFaithless\u201d shows maturity and works well without leaving a \u201cForever\u2026 -feeling\u201d behind. An acoustic opens \u201cLove to Love\u201d, only to be sidestepped by an 80\u00b4s riff model 1A and a straightforward refrain. The years have gone by and the reckless lyrics are replaced by the likes of the bitter \u201cHere\u00b4s Hoping It Hurts\u201d and the experience-based \u201cBattle Lines\u201d. But still there\u00b4s a solid \u201cwhooh\u201d in the opening lines of \u201cEvaporate\u201d and the grittier riffs of \u201cThe Fight Left in Me\u201d and, to a slighter extent, \u201cSound Off\u201d says \u201cHey, we\u00b4re not that old!\u201d. They also master JOHN WAITE`s soft storytelling in \u201cMonday\u201d. Unfortunatelyt both Evaporate\u201d and \u201cMonday\u201d have tendencies of running on empty and there are dead moments when they aren\u00b4t rocking enough. But for a band with their patchy history it\u00b4s not bad at all!<\/p>\n
