Synopsis

Album Description
You might not expect a trio of small-town Brits barely in their 20s to possess jarring blues riffs worthy of the old masters, but one listen will quickly place you among the converted. 20-20's deliver a sonic assault of guitar drenched-blues & thunderous rock n' roll from the ideal setting where their raw power can prevail...on stage. This debut limited mini EP features six live tracks, 'Devil In Me', 'I'm the One', 'Messed Up', 'Such A Fool', '22 Days', & 'King Bee', packaged in a paper sleeve & housed in a gatefold cardboard sleeve. EMI. 2003.

CD Reviews

Right on
Oliver Ignatius | NY | 02/13/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Oh these crazy English blues boys have got the 'tude alright, but have they got the songs? The answer is mostly yes, even if they manage the feat of being more derivative than Jet. This live record is mostly decent to good blues-punk but it's debut single "Such a Fool" which casts an overwhelming shadow of brilliance over everything else. No doubt about it - on the strength of that song, it's clear that these guys have potential."
The 22-20s garage rock blues

"Interesting how the 22-20s are from the UK considering that their sound is right out of the 70's deep south. Just think The White Stripes meets the The Kings Of Leon with a touch of the MC5. Most of 05-03 swaggers at a frenetic pace, almost like a country-tinged Jet, intertwined with some mellow blues songs. Another description would be Black Rebel Motorcycle Club meets Lynyrd Skynyrd. There's really no other way to describe this CD other than is southern fried garage-rock, down and dirty, energetic and brash, making for a foot stomping good time."
