Editorial Reviews

It seems that every few years -- like clockwork -- there is a new wave of bands that have apparently discovered the pleasures of vintage AC/DC albums from the '70s, when they were fronted by the late, great Bon Scott. And in the early 21st century, bands such as Airbourne represent the latest wave of high-profile DC worshipers, as well as a few lesser-known ones, such as the Last Vegas and their 2009 release, Whatever Gets You Off. But unlike most of the other similarly styled groups, the Last Vegas have been slugging it out for several years, and albums, by this point. Upon having been "discovered" by Mötley Crüe's Nikki Sixx (who not only signed the group to his Eleven Seven Music label and co-produced the album, but also secured the group a spot on the Crüe's 2009 U.S. tour), it appears as through the group will be introduced to a whole new audience. Like most bands heavily influenced by AC/DC, there are very little stylistic surprises within the grooves of Whatever Gets You Off, as the lads stick closely to the well-worn blueprint of greasy guitar riffs, sleazy vocals and lyrics, and boogie rhythms, as showcased on such ditties as "Whatever Gets You Off," "I'm Bad," and "Loose Lips."
