Real rock ‘n’ roll has never been trendy. It can’t be, because it’s timeless, eternal. Rock ‘n’ roll isn’t just about bad kids with good hearts, out late on a school night. It’s about always being able to make you remember how you felt when you were one of those kids, or desperately wanted to be. It’s about passion and heartbreak and release, about knowing better but going ahead and doing anyway.
Real rock ‘n’ roll is incalculably more than melody, rhythm and sexual analogy.
It’s gotta shake your soul as well as your ass.
The four young men of Four Star Riot understand this perfectly.
