Federal Charm – Federal Charm (Mystic Records).

Manchester’s Federal Charm has released a debut album that befits a true Rock band. This is a joy from start to finish and classic Rock themes abound from Too Blind To See, the stinging and throbbing Reaction and Any Other Day. Their Blues influences appear on The Stray and the rocking I’m Not Gonna Beg. They are explosive (Gotta Give It Up, Tell Your Friends), smouldering (Reconsider) and electric (No Money Down). Highlights are the slow burning Somebody Help Me and the ultra-quick There’s A Light. Vocalist Nick Bowden and guitarist Paul Bowe are top notch and live performances will be electric.
