Lotus - Complete Fruitage

Here we have a revamped and remastered edition of Swedish band Lotus's second album Fruitage. Entitled 'Complete Fruitage' this time around, it also contains eight bonus tracks. Now there's something to be said about the reintroduction of this style of music, which seems to be having a big impact in Europe. It's a generation throwback of hard rock, without the frills and icing and lavish production. It's retro, seventies embedded, simplistic in its arrangement, but cutting and bombastic in it's delivery. I love it! For three guys they surely pack a punch, and bring back vivid memories of other power trios/outfits from a bygone era, whether it be Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Alvin Lee, Jeff Beck or Frank Marino for that matter.

Kick-ass Swedish outfit, not to be confused with electronica band with same name.
