Rough Cutt

Post by GaetanL » Mon Aug 30, 2021 7:04 pm

I love this hard rock / metal band! I'm just 35 years late...

They have a new album called 3 (The only one I have not heard). Unfortunately there seem to be a dispute about the ownership of the band and there seem to be 2 Rough Cutt bands at this time. So another album is coming? I'm not sure I understand everything that is going on...

The debut is awesome for sure. Paul Shortino is on fire on that one, and a few of the songs have more of a "metal" vibe, than a hard rock / hair metal vibe.

The second album never did it for me - too polished I guess.

Yes, there are now 2 versions of the band with all 5 original members (well, from the debut) split into two camps. The Shortino fronted version put out a single for the next album, and it sounds okay. Not sure I care about it though these days, but I'll check out the full album at some point I'm sure.
