Album Review: "Ride" by Motor Sister

Ride

One of the most interesting thing about running this little blog is not just learning of kick ass new bands, but getting a look into kick ass bands of the past.

This review is a little of column A and a little of Column B. 

Motor Sister is the result of a birthday present from Pearl Aday (yup, Meatloaf's daughter) to her husband, Scott Ian (yup of Anthrax).

There's an old power trio Ian loved, Mother Superior. Personally, I wasn't remotely familiar with them.

So enter Mother Superior frontman, Jim Wilson, who works with Aday. Then toss in a few friends who enjoy rocking out and then there's a pickup gig with Ian, Wilson, and others playing these old tunes and loving it.

Metal Blade Records happened to have been there and thought that putting this out as an album would be the smartest thing in the world to do...so here we are.
