I took wasn't overly impressed when i reviewed BCC'S debut(i stand by every word),it was overated and rushed,overlong with some tracks probably in need of some more work,however this is the business,Hughes has reigned in some of his over elaborate singing and puts in a consumate performance here,as do all the band members,its great to hear Sherinian get a more prominent role.
As a disc this is head and shoulders above the debut(which was ok in parts), this rocks from start to finish and will be in your CD player for months,standout tracks 'Outsider' and 'Save Me'.
A superb release which can justifiably be looked upon as an album of the year contender,well done lads,cant wait for the gigs.

... because listening to this album is like falling through one back to the 1970s. It is like rummaging through your old music collection and finding an album you bought back then, and then put away and never played, until now. If you were fortunate enough to grow up during the 70s and 80s and loved rock, then my god you are going to love this. Just when you thought that you'd heard all the great rock from your youth that there was to be heard, this comes along. I don't mean this is in any way dated - far from it. It is fresh and vibrant, but it is also just SO of that era. I am 16 again.
Glenn Hughes will be 60 this year. I hope I'm in as good shape when I get there. The power and range in his voice is incredible, no hint whatsoever of it beginning to fade.
Joe on guitar is, as usual, stunning. The whole band is.
I won't bore you with more track by track analysis. This is just spine tingling, ear splitting rock. You need to listen to it. A very worthy second album. Fantastic.

Producer Kevin Shirley and Black Country Communion have returned with a brilliant follow-up album to 2010's eponymous debut album. The new album "2" kicks off with vintage classic rock will balls in "The Outsider" - an epic tour de force that touches on just about every rock genre you can think of, including prog rock keyboards, circa Yes and Deep Purple, courtesy of former Dream Theater keyboardist, Derek Sherinian.
Track 2 "Man in the Middle" is a gut crunching rock guitar riff with a low bass end threatm which doesn't let up for a single minute. The album flows with non-stop classic riffs and superb musicianship.
Stand out tracks include the Zepplinesque "Save Me", which originally started off as a riff that Jason Bonham came up with after the he played drums at the Led Zeppelin reunion at the London o2 Arena in 2007.
Joe Bonamassa's guitar playing is impeccable throughout, however, the shining star of the album is Glenn Hughes, former Deep Purple "Burn" singer and bassist, who evokes some of the best rock vocals so far this decade. He sings in leaps and bounds, displays real emotional gusto and makes you believe that rock and roll will live forever.
But it's the closer on the album "Cold" that really hits home with it's emotional and heartfield golden rock gods moment.
If there's one classic rock album to own this year, Black Country Communion's "2" has to be the one.

black country com.
I was`nt struck with this dvd, after seeing Joe B. in his solo work, he is wasted being a guitarist in a regular band.
Joe B. holds these guys together.
