	"Hands down, its the best rock out album of the year."		P R E S S Face of the Assasin May 2002 Who, pray tell, are Alta May? Three guys who put the power in power trio, that's who. From the opening riff, stolen from Blondie's "One Way or Another" and then adrenalized, I was captivated. I hear grunge, I hear classic rock, I hear power pop, I hear three chord punk and I hear metal. I hear good old fashioned balls-to-the-wall rock-n-roll. Heavy, mighty guitars, tempered with classic song structure and really great sounding vocals. These guys rock but they're tuneful, and that's crucial. The first two tracks are absolute dynamite, livin' after midnite, rockin' til the dawn! Then the third, "Crown Yourself" slows things down but it still packs quite a punch, with a short spell of impressive lead guitar. "Slip" recalls Led Zep, while "Moving Target" has Offspring-like overtones. The best comparison I can make for the band's sound is to the Foo Fighters. Perfect production on the album too. After listening to this I'm ready to go out and kick some ass. This is literally the best album I've heard in a long time. Hands down, its the best rock out album of the year. I was so excited about it that I had to turn my stereo down and call my friend Pooch and insist he get the album immediately. Then I turned the volume up and blasted it into the phone so he'd see just how awesome Alta May are. I will scream Alta May from the rooftops, I will not rest until every rock fan on earth owns this record! Come on, feel the noise! <<<< BACK TO PRESS PAGE		BECOME A FRIEND OF ALTA MAY >>> You will receive a space reserved in heaven, as well as notification of shows and releases.
