Crosswire = Great rock n' roll

I had some itunes credit so took the plunge and downloaded Crosswire based on Angelic Warlord's review and found it to be a smashing album.  Amazed this wasn't picked up by a label?!!  Anyone else have this?

I have it and like it a lot.  I haven't played it in a while, but I think I will today just because you brought it up.  These guys had that raw and dirty sound similar to GNR, Mainline Riders, Faster Pussycat, etc.  I wish they'd get around to doing another release.  This one has been out for a while.

I got this when it was new because I love the music. I tried and tried, but could never come to enjoy the vocals. They are awful! With even a slightly better singer, this would have been awesome. But as is, it is unlistenable for me.

....I like this.....have to checked out lyrics....but I might put this on my " want " list.

Anyone got a CD of this you'd like to get rid of?  I would take it off your hands.  All I have is the MP3 downloads.

Man this band rocks!!!!!!!!
Definitely going to pick up this release

After some speedy research apparently they broke up in 2012 and their vocalist is in a new band called DeadWeight (Christian no idea?)

Two members are in the band they have linked on the page called No Longer Slaves

I just checked the link to No Longer Slaves

Guess what!?
The first post, they are on hiatus

I hate to hear that about No Longer Slaves!  I would like to hear a full album of the original song they have on their Facebook page.

He kind of reminds me of Dizzy Dean from Britny Fox.  Not exactly, but a closer comparison than many other vocalists.  I think he fits the raunchy sound they were trying to achieve.
