3 stars I read in a previous review that T2 was a mix of early prog rock and the rawness of The Stooges. Let me add to that mix Black Sabbath like riffing and we have a pretty original cocktail here.

Itīll all Work Out in Boomland is a very guitar driven affair which is pretty unusual in prog rock, but T2 is not your every day prog rock band. All melodies and soloes are played by the guitarist Keith Cross. I really love his raw and unpolished style, which sometimes remind me of Toni Iommi on the first Black Sabbath album. T2 is not nearly as heavy as Black Sabbath though, even though they come close at times. Some strange things have found their way into this album, and Iīll have to mention that in both J.L.T and No More White Horses the keyboard ( which is only present shortly) plays a melody that sounds like the tune from M.A.S.H ( Itīs kind of funny).

One thing that brings my excitement down though are the vocals. I think they are too unremarkable. They donīt stand out in any way.

I think everyone in this site should give this a chance as there are some really fine moments on this album, but with that said, Iīll only give this one 3 stars, as I think T2 lacks in some places. First of all a really good vocalist. But itīs an album I always enjoy listening to and frequently do.

UMUR | 3/5 |
