The Black Cigarettes @ Oregon Express 12.29.07

...we'd been curious to see The Black Cigarettes for a while now, having been impressed with what we heard off their debut album, Full Flavor. Heading down to The Oregon Express last night to see them, the band definitely delivered on their promise. With big AC/DC sized riffing and attitude to spare, we would definitely like to see more of these guys with other Dayton bands soon (we're looking at you, Luxury Pushers and Sexicon). Landing somewhere in between Thin Lizzy and Stone Temple Pilots, TBC also brought heavy doses of boogie woogie, proving to us the importance of the roll in rock n' roll ...
