The 1986 Listening Post - Nazareth - Cinema

Nazareth - Cinema



#60/1227
February 1986
Nazareth
Cinema
Genre: Arena Rock
3.5 out of 5

Highlights:
Other Side of You


The Mutt Langeing of Arena Rock is in full swing on this latest offering from a band whose best days were a half decade + in the rearview. Just listen to that Def Leppardized opening track. Whew. That is some over production of mediocrity. But it’s candyfied enough that I kind of like it. 
These guys know how to do this so they do it. Are they adding anything to this blues rock, riff-laden genre? Nope. But they do it with gusto. Considering the nadir of AC/DC’s output at this time, I kind of like & miss this sound.
