The Rock Dose

BigElf Cheat the Gallows, A Circus Of Rock Splendore

by Scott on August 6th, 2008

Due to release on August 12th, Bigelf’s Cheat The Gallows is a journey into a world of rock genre splitting/converging. Imagine if you will the pop rock genius of the Beatles mixed with the psychedelic brilliance of Pink Floyd with a hint of the darkness of Black Sabbath riffage and that will pretty much sum up the rock and roll roller coaster acid trip of Bigelf. In a time when modern rock seems to be getting more stale than it has become in the last 10 years, Bigelf bring back a touch of the past while keeping it interesting and catchy. I’m not big on trac-by-track reviews because I hate trying to dissect each song into a world of it’s own. It’s an album in it’s entirety that the songs hold together and if it’s all filler then I’ll be more than happy to talk about the one or two good songs and frown upon the remaining lumps of crap in between. Cheat The Gallows is great from the very first song to the last fading note at the end.

I’m not familiar with Bigelf’s past work, but if it’s anything like Cheat The Gallows, I have been missing out on an interesting band to say the least. At first I wasn’t sure what to think when I first started listening and then it all seemed to come together in a whirlwind of amazement.
