Hit: 4 Stars
10 years after the release of their last studio album, (some of) Bang Tango was back in action with 2004's Ready to Go. By 2004, Bang Tango was essentially vocalist Joe Leste and some guys, but after hearing this hard rocking album, you won't really care about the lineup specifics.
Ready to Go could have fit in right after the band's 1989 debut Psycho Cafe and before their 1991 funk rock effort Dancin' on Coals. It's essentially a hair metal album. I know nobody wants to be associated with that term now, but that's what Bang Tango was, it's why they were popular, and it's what's so great about Ready to Go. Sure, the album's not as lyrically cheesy as Psycho Caf?. Leste is older and presumably wiser, so he's not serving up another variation of Love Injection this time around, but the rest of Ready to Go definitely captures the spirit of the old Bang Tango. This is an alcohol-fueled rock & roll album, short on the dreary introspection of modern rock like (shudder) Coldplay, and long on great melodies, catchy riffs, and killer solos, all with that unmistakable L.A. edge.
If you were a Bang Tango fan back in the day - and not just of the funkier stuff - you're going to like today's Bang Tango as well. Between this band and Beautiful Creatures (who are also well worth checking out), Joe Leste is doing his best to bring back the Sunset Strip sound, and my hat's off to him for doing it. There's a reason we all loved that kind of music in the 80's. Sometimes, you just want your rock & roll to be fun and make you feel like part of the action.
Ready to Go Poster
Bang Tango was one of LA's most successful groups from the tail end of the L.A . metal scene and this music is currently enjoying a renaissance as fans rediscover their favorite bands of the era. Few of these artists are as on top of their game in the way Bang Tango is today, as their hard rocking new CD "Ready To Go " reveals.Classic Rock Music CDs
