Album:

It’s not often you can say a hard rock band formed after two members bonded over a Lewis Capaldi track, but that appears to be the case with Canadians Lÿnx. Vocalist Lazer Wild and lead guitarist Blade showed mutual admiration for the song “Someone You Loved” so they decided to cover the track. But while the original is just vocals and piano, they did a full electric power-ballad re-work.Now LYNX, this classic ’80 Hard Rock / Glam Metal band hailing from Calgary, Canada, are releasing their new EP ‘Long Live Rock n’ Roll‘, a powerful, catchy, anthemic collection of songs combining the best of Kiss, Poison, Ratt, Motley Crüe with their own personality.This is pure hair metal circa 1987 but not a parody or a nostalgic trip, Lÿnx sounds real, authentic, and kick some serious ass.Formed in 2020 initially the band’s name was decided to be “LazerBlade” which was inspired by the first name of the vocalist & guitar player as they are also the founding members of the band. Something was missing and wasn’t going too well with the theme of the band.After some time of struggling to come up with a name, it may sound crazy but one night while Blade was looking out the window around 2 AM he saw a huge Canadian lynx cat roaming around in his neighbourhood.Next day, Lazer decided to put the cherry on the cake and changed Lynx to Lÿnx to make its, well, even more ’80s.The band recorded & released their debut EP after few months formed, and while these are almost demos, homemade recordings, all rock greatly. These are the songs placed at the end here.But the songs on ‘Long Live Rock n’ Roll’ (tracks 1 to 6) blow out of the water anything recorded by Lÿnx before: this is a professionally recorded tunes produced with bombast and a huge sound. Of course, you need good songs and Lÿnx known how to write a catchy riff and a hooky chorus.Opening with the cataclysmic title track, ‘Long Live Rock n’ Roll’ delivers in droves, firing up the classic Lÿnx sound and paying tribute to the heavy sounds of ‘80s hard rock while also adding their own special twist. Bold, brazen, and built to overcome any obstacles, the title track is an immediate highlight.On second slot ‘Irresistible’, the boys push the charm and intensity, creating a hot track that is all about getting the girl, and sports an irresistible chorus indeed, melodic.Then ‘Crazy Crazy World’, stitched together from a deadly stream of fast-paced tempos, wild vocals, and even a shredding guitar solo, it’s a massive track that hits all the right marks. As the second half of the EP arrives, Lÿnx don’t miss a beat, launching into a second volley of hard-hitting glam-rock anthems that keep on burning well into the small hours.Starting with ‘Red Rocket’, a sleazy rock gem that strikes hard with an undeniable heavy-funky rhythm, the EP builds to a climactic finish, ticking all the boxes of the classic sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll experience.Fifth track ‘Forged In Fire’ lives up to its name with plenty of power ballad brilliance, but it’s the band’s closing anthem, a modern take of Black Sabbath’s ‘Paranoid’ that really shines, paying tribute to the heavy metal legends while also putting their own visceral twist on a classic.In terms of this style – ’80s Hair Metal / Glam Hard Rock – ‘Long Live Rock n’ Roll’ is a brilliant piece, catchy, cheesy, but rockin’ like few, a direct and unyielding ode to what rock n’ roll music used to be.A release that’s not for the faint of heart, it’s bold, brash, landing as one of Lÿnx’s defining musical moments.These Canadians are good, very good, and we’re only expecting bigger things from them…

Album:

We really enjoyed Canadian rockers LYNX EP from a couple years ago, and now the guys are ready to release their first full length album titled “Claws Out“. LYNX’s music is classic ’80s Hard Rock / Glam Metal, catchy, anthemic songs combining the best of KISS, Poison, Tuff, Ratt, Motley Crüe, etc, with their own personality.This is pure hair metal circa 1987 but not a parody or a nostalgic trip, Lÿnx sounds real, authentic, and kick some serious ass. There is nary a hair sprayed out of place nor a streak of black eyeliner smudged as Lÿnx provides an aboslute feral ride through hair metal glory. Yeah, perhaps there’s too much reverb on the vocals on some tracks, but heck, that was a rule in the ’80s too!In a world where the echoes of the ’80s rock scene still reverberate through the hearts of true believers, ”Claws Out”, available on May 9th, is a sonic feast that pays homage to the glory days of glam metal while injecting a modern edge that keeps the adrenaline pumping.From the first notes of “Hell In High Heels,” it’s clear that Lÿnx is on a mission to ignite the flames of your memories while carving out their own place in the scene. With lyrics that delve into the complexities of desire and longing, this track sets the stage for a wild ride.“Rock Machine” follows suit, paying tribute to the unsung heroes of the road… the tour vehicles that carry the band from one venue to the next. It’s a raw and unapologetic anthem for the rock n’ roll lifestyle, complete with scorching guitar solos and thunderous drums.With the title track, “Claws Out,” is where Lÿnx truly sinks their teeth into the listener’s psyche. Inspired by the myths of werewolves, this track channels the primal energy of the beast, with lyrics dripping with bloodthirsty intensity and guitar riffs that cut through the air like razor-sharp claws.Reminiscent of the glory days of Faster Pussycat and Motley Crue, “Can’t Get Enough” and “Shake It Up” keep the party rolling with their infectious energy and irresistible hooks. These are the quintessential hair metal anthems that demand to be played at maximum volume, with lyrics that celebrate the hedonistic pleasures of sex, drugs, and rock n’ roll.The shining star of ‘Claws Out’ though is “Band of Brothers”. From its soaring vocals to its heartfelt lyrics and infectious melody, this track captures everything that makes the band a force to be reckoned with. The opening makes me think of Bon Jovi’s “Lay Your Hands on Me” and what I like about this song the most is that while it stays in alignment with Lÿnx’s hard rock sound, it shows the band’s true talent. It strips away the glam and allows each member to shine, especially the vocals of Ja6ur.The ballad-esque “Nothing But Love” has the spirit of hit ballads from Skid Row. It’s a tender moment of rest in the middle of the chaotic party.”Claws Out” is a straight shot of glammy rock n’ roll straight to the heart. With its infectious energy, blistering guitar solos, and powerhouse vocals, it’s a proof to the enduring power of the genre. The guys ‘nailed’ the classic sound with ”Claws Out”.Crank up the volume, grab the Aqua Net, throw up the horns, and let Lÿnx take you on a journey through the wild and untamed world of hair metal glory.
