1999 5-song EP from Boston contemporary group Five O'Clock Shadow, who have emerged from recent changes in personnel sounding better than ever. The three original compositions are catchy and radio-friendly, and the production features big vocal guitars, drums and bass, in the 'vocal band' style. 'Santa Says Rock' really does, getting just a bit outside and curling its lip in a sneer. 'It's Christmas' has that Euro-pop sound, with a vocal keyboard line that tattoos the brain, and a chunky backbeat. 'Silent Night' becomes a midtempo ballad, with a steamy guitar lead. |
