Traditional but still original
L. B. Ivarsson | Rock City | 05/21/2003
(3 out of 5 stars)

"If you like electrified blues-rock with masculine rough vocals, I advise you to check out Omar & The Howlers. The fact is that this band sound very similar on their albums (with exception of "Swingland"), but I guess "World wide open" is their best effort. The music bare connection to Tony Joe White's Swamp Blues style. The approach is raw but the songs usually have an attractive hook or melody. The only, or in fact the main problem is that music in this genre have a tendency to be very boring in the long run, but I believe Omar & The Howlers are better than others in avoiding this trap since their much more original than say Walter Trout."
