Tesla - Shock

There is no Tesla sound without Tommy Skeoch. Listen to Tommy’s 2 solo albums and you hear great Tesla sounds. Tommy can’t sing for crap but his music & solos are awesome. He balanced out Frank’s southern rock style. No ill-will toward Dave but he’s not Tommy and has changed their sound for the worse imho. So few bands make it in the biz. Tesla made it be of Frank & Tommy’s combined style along with Jeff’s unique voice and Troy’s drum & B-dub’s bass licks. You can’t replace Tommy and expect the same chemistry. Jeff’s voice on ‘Taste Like’ sounds a lot like the last album; his voice sounds strained and irritated. Maybe just old age. If you want some good Tesla sound go listen to him & Tommy’s band Bar 7. Awesome top to bottom. The ‘Shock’ song is better. We’ll see what the rest of the album has in store.

As soon as I heard Phil Collin was producing this I had a bad feeling. Sure enough the first single sounds like a Def Leppard throw away track. The second single, “Taste Like” is only slightly better.

Can’t wait for this one!!!

Good song but I do not like the electronic drums. Where’s the guitar solos? It has a different sound then previous albums. Definitely has some Def Leppard influence.

“Shock” sounds great. Rock solid tempo. Really looking forward to the album now.

Not bad need more guitar.

Sounds good. Ready for the rest of it. Great band!

A fan since the beginning i hope the rest of the album is as good as Shock the first single

Tesla should of been much bigger than they got, middle of the road band, HELL NO! Tesla is up there with the best. Grunge killed Rock-n-Roll in the 90’s, but who is still going today? I don’t see grunge bands putting out cd’s, rock will never die. TESLA ROCKS! Can’t wait until you come to town... New sound.... SOUNDS GREAT!!!!

Wow!!!!! Can’t wait to hear more!!!!!
