All Genres > Rock > Modern Rock > LASTELLE: This is what I do

New rock from Oz

High energy rock like Foo Fighters, Aerosmith, The Who

Quirky like Talking Heads, Peter Gabriel, Neil Young

Lastelle's debut album "this is what I do" is high energy rock delivered with intelligence and quality - a powerful and original take on blues and classic rock.

Catchy and memorable riffs combine with perceptive lyrics, the songs are a celebration of music and the human spirit - a polished and punchy production.

"lastelle" is singer / songwriter chris lastelle, on lead vocals, guitars and keyboards and his band: dave scotland on lead guitar, craig calhoun on bass, scott johnston on drums, mark williams and robyn loau on backing vocals

The album moves through a variety of moods and energies providing danceable tunes with grabbing openings such as "this is what I do" and "don't fit no more"; a great blues riff combines with cynical lyrics in "it's love again". "on my way" is a bluesy, bouncy song and it continues with the manic "march of time" and the ironic drive of "I must be happy". The instant appeal of the songs draws you in leaving you with a taste for more.

"This is what I do" is more than a song or title, it is a statement of desire and intent, reflecting lastelle's commitment to his craft, writing, arranging and producing an album of songs that connect emotionally with lastelle's world.

It's obvious that lastelle's music is inspired by the greats of rock and blues. His songs are reminiscent of the likes of eric clapton, pete townsend, david byrne and peter gabriel.
