Drive - Jehovah's Witness Protection Program |
- With a sound described as "Bad Brains beat up Elvis Costello at a Kiss concert", DRIVE return with their new CD Jehovah's Witness Protection Program. Twelve more of the band's high intensity hard rock songs showcase the sound that has earned them both rave reviews for their live shows and an East Coast Music Award nomination for their last CD Blink. - DRIVE emerge from Newfoundland with a distinct heavy rock attitude far removed from the ‘East Coast' alternative sound. With two CMW and ECMA appearances, one NXNE show, SummerSault '98, and on six tours with performances from Vancouver to St. John's to Wilno, Ontario, DRIVE have earned a reputation as a fast and furious, high energy, live act. "Their newest album is sensational." - the newfoundland herald, july 97
"It should bring the power rock trio the recognition it deserves. You can choose from a variety of musical definitions of Drive - all you need to now is that these three kick musical butt. JEHOVAH delivers the band's live sound into your living room." - the express, july 97
"This album is proof they have what it takes to become a national name, not to mention a MuchMusic favorite. And if that's the case, it's darned well about time." - the evening telegram, july 97
"I would compare Drive to another band if I could, but every outstanding band has no comparison, and this merits no exception to the rule." - carillon, saskatoon, oct 97
"JEHOVAH is made up of 12 tracks of unmitigated post-modern, angst-ridden, alternative rock ‘n' roll. Bass, drums, and guitar come together to form a sound that is refreshingly simple, yet undeniably cutting edge." - music east, halifax, oct 97 Recorded and mixed by Tom Ronan Recorded at Nickel Soundworks, St. John's, NF All songs written one way or another by Drive © 1997 Alice Productions |
