Logan – Cruel Little World (2008)
I first discovered the band Logan, when Irish hard rockers Million Dollar Reload mentioned them as a band that they have toured with recently. A few internet clicks later, and I stumbled upon another kick ass rock band from the UK. This unsigned band already has three CD’s under their belt, and have played with Alter Bridge & Bon Jovi, as well as major festivals in Europe. In the United States, they are largely unknown, but judging from the songs on Cruel Little World, that wont be the case for very long.
Logan’s third CD, Cruel Little World was re-released in 2008 with three bonus tracks, “Lost & Found”, “Grounded” and “New Way”. I would describe the band’s sound as a mix between Creed & Shinedown. It blows my mind that Logan is unsigned, as there are less talented bands touring the United States today. Cruel Little World is impressive collection of modern hard rock, that should be played on radio stations everywhere.
“Hallowed Ground”, “Out of Mind”, “Be Strong” and “New Way” are the heaviest cuts on this CD, and are easily my favorites. There truly isn’t a bad song in the bunch, and there are several hit worthy tunes on this disc.
You can check out the songs from Cruel Little World on Reverbnation at this link, and you can purchase it from iTunes at this location. This CD is going to be a mainstay in my play list, and it should be in yours too. Check Logan out! You will be glad you did!
