RoosterCDs with Jessica Hinton in association with Woolworths

THIS band of four rather pretty-looking young men actually seem to have quite a lot to offer.

Considering the fact that they seem to have come from nowhere, Rooster's debut album Rooster is very easy listening and very entertaining.

From the first singles released from the album a teen pop vibe was felt, but the album is quite rock in places.

Their first single Come Get Some has an Aerosmith kind of vibe to it, while the other up-tempo tracks have a hint of Led Zeppelin, Black Crowes and Reef. On slower songs Rooster verge on Bon Jovi territory - very 80s soft rock, but still good songs.

People into really heavy stuff might find Rooster a little too pop, but for anyone who likes their rock music to have a good song behind it this is a cracking album with potential for a good follow-up.

The album seems full of strong tunes, thoughtfully written and well played.
