Raw and passionate blues rock. Booker's voice is smoky and smoked out as he rasps over strongly played guitar lines and blues rock hooks. His single "Violent Shiver" is enough to hook you into the full record, and by the end you'll wanna spin it again.

frankly, it wasn't very interesting, but I can't give enough extra points for Old Hearts that song slaps
