Too Sophisticated - "The Sweet Kings of Rock 'n' Roll"
(Teosto TOOCD002)
Uploaded to Aural Innovations: September 2005
Too Sophisticated are from Seinäjoki in Finland. This band's first release was a 7" in1995 and they apparently just keep rocking! This is a 5 song EP of down and dirty rock and roll with a bit of sleaze thrown in. On the opening track, I'm Loose, the singer sounds like a mix of Ray Davies and Johnny Rotten, with that snotty sound. I get the idea that this band is just a good time party band as the songs are not that great or interesting. It's only rock and roll and we like it, usually.
