Here's a review from a german magazine. I'm not sure what the mag is called, sorry guys. No link because the review is in German. Crappy translation I know, but hopefully you'll get the gist of it.
In typical style of good old rock and roll of the 70s and 80s move a combo called Tonk. Coming From Down Under you can hear the influences directly out the disc on the Sister Switch Blade aufgepeppt and a new cast of it made.
Musically, the songs move in blues rock, the sound is a bit like AC/DC, the Licks have been so similar for Blue Öyster Cult, and the singer has something of Ian Gillan. Not the worst role models. Skillfully made Tonk An-like style, but on its own barrel.
Always nice rock, with dirty sound and very cool grooving to the Australians that. Imaginative realm, the songs and make listening fun. From faster uptempo rock number until mid-Halbballade found anything on the album. Very atmospheric and stylish solos are the finishing touch on the I.
A production official rounds the whole thing very nicely and gives the music the sound of the time. A very nice thing as I think, because you have so to speak - say exaggerated - with a kind of remastering of old favorite songs can be compared.
For starters, had a phase in which it is the rock of the old school was
cool, or is still in there - which I personally think much more likely -
should the Sister Switch Blade necessarily listen. Sure, the great role
models and emotions of a Vergangenzeit will not be achieved, but it is
very cool to hear that a bit of spirit and get into the present has saved.
