Rating:

In the space of a decade, Black Stone Cherry have established themselves as one of the frontrunners of American rock. Their name might not have infiltrated every nook and cranny like that of Nickelback, but if you wade through the river of shit that can only be represented by ‘Rockstar’ (a song which simultaneously exalted Nickelback to the pop hall of fame and signed the death warrant of hard-rock’s dignity), then you reach a field where decent rock bands frolic like there was no tomorrow. This is firmly where Black Stone Cherry has set up camp.
