Jeff Scott Soto – Damage Control (2012)

From Yngwie Malmsteen, Talisman, Eyes & even Skrapp Mettle, I have been listening to Jeff Scott Soto for what seems like forever.  I have enjoyed every musical project and band he has been involved with.   One thing is for certain, Mr. Soto doesn’t know how to put out a bad release. Needless to say, it was almost predestined that I would enjoy Jeff’s latest effort, Damage Control.

On Damage Control, Jeff Scott Soto doesn’t reinvent the wheel, and he doesn’t need to.  Soto delivers his excellent and severely underrated vocals to another batch of great melodi, hard rock tunes. Chances are if you have enjoyed the music of JSS in the past, you are going to like Damage Control a lot.  The CD is 100 % quality rock and roll, and it does not disappoint.

I prefer the harder edged numbers on the CD, “Krazy World”, “Afterworld”, and “Damage Control”. These songs are good, but they are not the best songs on Damage Control.

The opening song “Give a Little More” has a pretty good message, and is a great song too. “How To Love Again” is as close to melodic rock perfection as it gets.  This song is easily one Jeff Scott Soto’s best tunes.

“Bonafide” is a massive ballad that should get tons of airplay everywhere. “Look Inside Your Heart” is another excellent song (see video below) that has been getting a ton of replays from me.

Overall, Damage Control is another outstanding album from Jeff Scott Soto that is going to please the majority of his fans.  You should make a point to check it out, when it is released on March 27th.

If you buy any version of this CD, make sure you get the Deluxe Edition, which had three extra bonus tracks (“Afraid to Die”, “Take U Down”, and “Elena”) which are not on the standard version. You can pre-order Damage Control at this link!

    I Love Jeffs music. I have a LOT of it. Even though he sings a helluva ballad I prefer the rock side to the mellow tunes. Listening to the sound bytes it sounds like this one is another I cant pass up on. 😉
