Snydly Crunch – Revealed (1993)

1458711253_zysp0bvThis is a very good album. Not great but worthwhile to check out. It is affordable and is a cross between Savannah and Frontline. While this came out in 1993 before the afformentioned bands, that is saying something.Production is pretty good and the songwriting is strong. A good mix of slower tunes and rockers. The guitar player can certainly play.I wish they put out more stuff. I feel they would have evolved nicely.Pick this one up, you won’t be disappointed.
