Look At Death Now
Artist: Jet Circus 
Label: Hypersonic
Length: 9 tracks / 35:55

Harley-revving bass and slithering-snake guitar leads are dangerous combos when cranked from a car stereo, so listener beware: sliding Jet Circus’ _Look At Death Now_ into the dash disc player may result in an inadvertent speeding violation!

Swedish '90's heavy rocker Ez Gomer (vocals, bass) is back with a new album. This time around he’s joined by some heavy-hitting guest musicians, including Mikkey Dee of Motorhead, Stefan Elmgren of Hammerfall, and The Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. _Look At Death Now_ is chock full of metallic excellence, from the powerhouse-foursome of head-banging openers (“One Dime Scape Goat,” “Man Rules,” “Godless Happiness” and the title track) to the beautiful fullness of string-enhanced ballads (“The Way You Bless Me” and “Fears of Tomorrow”). Gomer’s deep-to-wailing vocals are brilliant and engaging throughout.

High-octane. Smokin’. Brain-and-bone-jarring. Electric. Yeeeaaaahhhh!

RIYL: Velvet Revolver, The Cult, Van Halen
