Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (BRMC)'s fourth studio album "Baby 81" has the group going back to their rocking roots and sees the return of their drummer Nick Jago. BRMC's 2005 release, "Howl" was a stripped down, acoustic/folksie album which was loved by some and hated by others. These boys broke on the scene in 2000 as part of the "new rock" bubble with the likes of The Strokes and The White Stripes. Although they flew under the radar for some time, their self-titled album, they were critically acclaimed by many. Their follow-up album "Take them on, on your own", perhaps my favorite (nay, this one is even better) was, as many sophmore albums are, not recieved with the same sort of critical acclaim. Well after 7 years, and four albums BRMC goes back to their A game through and through and produces a gritty, bluesy, rocking album which should be loved by ya'll!Download Baby '81 here!
