For 35 years, or in the 35th year, historians argue, the ADOLESCENTS have existed, and yet I only know two or three handfuls of songs by the Californians. Well, at irregular intervals, the "youths" around singer Tony "Reflex" Cadena and bassist Steve Soto also disbanded, only to reunite years later. However, they have been quite active again for about 5 years now, and the two have already integrated 3 new members into the band compared to last year's album "Presumed Insolent".
During the 35 minutes of playtime of "La Vendatta", the ADOLESCENTS go back to their roots and have two guitars on board again, which is clearly reflected in the sound. I am not used to so many guitar solos from the ADOLESCENTS, and from the melodic punk rock of the last albums, a distinct touch of stoner and hard rock has now been added. To be honest, I preferred the sound of the last albums. While these new 16 songs are not bad, I only really like the melodic songs like "Let it go".... an absolutely awesome song! But it's one in the style of the great "American dogs in Europe" E.P. from 2012, which I also reviewed as "very good" (and too short with 4 songs).
Once again, the songs are available on a colored LP limited to 1000 copies, including a digital download code. This delights my vinyl heart (it's just a pity that I received the CD version) and gives a scorer point.
