Re: Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown

I knew Tyler had a dedicated thread on here, somewhere....

Just wanted to re-affirm that Tyler's "lockdown" album Pressure is an absolute blast, and conditions aside, strong contender for album of the year.

he seems to have shaken off the excesses of the 80s hair-metal that flavoured Truth & Lies, but retained the power and combined it perfectly with his stunning Blues feel. Add a collaboration from his Larkin Poe wife Rebecca Lovell and a guest vocal from Blackberry Smoke's Charlie Starr and you've got a perfect distillation of 2020.

Re: Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown

I do think its an excellent  album.
However I do find Truth and  Lies to have better hooks overall .And it really is  more of a rock  album straight  up . Although I never hear the 80’s hair metal in it as much  myself.
Pressure is more blues infused.
