Adrenaline Mob – Omertà (2012) – Review by Logan Lee

I have postponed this review on purpose because even though I knew about it and have listened to it a lot of times I had to see them live at least once to attach further information (also for my personal pleasure) for you guys. So, after the review, take a look on the small article about their performance in Rome on the last June 20th .

For what concerns Adrenaline Mob as a super group there’s really little space left for add-ons. The best drummer around, Mike Portnoy, has meet the amazing voice (and charisma) of Russell Allen, not to mention the great guitar player Mike Orlando and powerful Disturbed bass player John Moyer creating a project that I hope will last.

The reason of this hope is Omertà. The best 2012 release so far (on my opinion) has 11 tracks and a vast range of styles and interpretations. Here is a small list of what you will find on Omertà: great guitar riffs; lessons of drums technique; voice versatility; powerful tracks; good songwriting . . . and it could proceed a while.

Well, let’s now talk about the tracks. Omertà opens with a three tracks sequence that is hard to define, Undaunted, Psychosane and Indifferent gives you the kind of energy that we need on this days. I can’t get enough of hearing this 3 tracks and my car CD player seems to understand me.

The rest of the album is equally amazing with no low moments. They have managed to cover it all: energy as abovementioned, a great hit duo as Angels Sky and All in the Line, a Duran Duran cover (in my opinion “improved”) and whatever else you seek on a must have album you will saw in Omertà!

There’s nothing else left to say about it… oh yeah, the vote…I was not forgetting it but it’s quite obvious that it is a perfect for Mike and the MOB!!
