"An Ocean Of
Masterpieces"--Metal Perspective
"Emerald was so perfect
it almost made me weep... Lynott himself would have approved"--PyroMusic.net
"After I listened to the
CD I felt as if I had been to a Lizzy concert!"--Philomena
Lynott
"Phil would approve..." --Metal-Temple.com
"Sounds nice, instrumentally really good" -- Strutterzine
"A nice homage--it's tough
to find fault with this record!" --Metal Archives
"This is a great collection
and sincere tribute to one of the true pioneers of hard rock"- Hard
Rock Haven
"Sounds awesome. All the
classic harmony leads are in place and singer Mitch Urban pulls
off one hell of a Phil Lynott - Metal Observer
"I have to admit I actually liked some renditions and enjoyed listening to the album a great deal!" --ROCKREPORT.BE
"The result is a thirteen track collection of some of the best Thin Lizzy tracks, including those well-known and not so well-known,
performed by a band that not so much wants to emulate the classic band's sound but DUPLICATE it. Every track on this tribute CD
is played note-for-note how the original band played it and it's played well. It's almost as though the original band was around
to to re-record these tracks with modern equipment and just a little more distortion in the guitars." --ROUGHEDGE.COM
"Soaring, scathing and melodic,
this CD can have your ears peeled back. A competent,
rocking
tribute to the Irish mega-group of the 70's." --Reviewer
Magazine
"It's an album of which even
Phil Lynott would be proud" --Thoughts Of Metal
"This album isn't a joke.
Maybe Rude Awakening knows something I don't!" --MetalForge.com
"Delivers high quality interpretations
consistently throughout" --All Access Magazine
"The production is perfect and
they play the songs the way they were meant to be played and
this is just ass kickin rock n roll
from one of the most criminally ignored bands of the 70's/80's.
Phil would be proud guys and
you brought a smile to my face too. This is an awesome release!"--
Metal Core
"Rude Awakening's versions
are really all class and sound very near to the original" --Sleaze-Metal.com
"Accurately and truly represents
the songwriting and performance values
of the original Irish band." --Rock Aces
"Rude Awakening are a tight
veteran act that breathe a new life and sound
into some music that influenced so many"--heavymetalresource.com
"Very good tribute album"--MelodicRock.com
"Rude Awakening seems to
find their natural home with these brilliant songs. The pumped-up
production
gives some of the songs that extra bit of beef they lacked in
the old days..."
--Rock United
"If you're a hardcore Thin
Lizzy fan then you'd probably want this one in your collection
too..." --Blabbermouth.net
"Yeah, I enjoyed it. More
than once. I don’t think I’d admit to a half dozen
times,
even if… well, actually seven times." --Martin
Popoff, Bravewords and Bloody Knuckles
"I just listened to the entire
CD and I love every bit of it!" --Doc Tremor Radio Show,
