Album Review

In the history of Rock’n’Roll music many a band was formed by absurdly young people but this bunch of rockaholics take the cake. The only real information I got from the good old internet is that the whole gang was about 12 years old when they heard the call and formed this band. They formed 2006, but it was not before 2009 when this project got serious. The band is known in Reykjavik for being an energetic live band and has released two LP`s since 2011.the second LP of THE VINTAGE CARAVAN was even released by one of Iceland`s biggest record labels, Sena which they made a deal with in early 2012. Their overall musical approach is very mixed but always classic, influenced by the 60`s and 70`s Rock music.

Where some of the new retro bands fail THE VINTAGE CARAVAN prevails, recently I managed to keep myself busy with checking out a few so called retro bands and I wasn`t excited by many bands who get a hype at the moment. However if you read this review and you own a radio station or are involved with a web radio site or something, then get these guys some airplay for they deserve it! I can say without a doubt that this band is exciting, fresh and they do the old school stuff very good for their age. Just buy this record and listen to songs like ‘Expand Your Mind’ or ‘Winterland’ just to name two of nine brilliant, real, rock songs that will hopefully be classics a few years from now. This is their debut album; I can only imagine what they will be capable of in the future.
