Customer Reviews

What Happened Here?
No matter how much I listen to this album, I can't figure out what is wrong with it.

You see, in principle, there is nothing wrong. Same guys that made the fantastic Backstreet Symphony get together and follow the same recipe. Is that what went wrong?

The vocals are good, the guitar style is similar, but somehow Laughing on Judgement day doesn't rock like Backstreet did. For starters is the lenght of the record. As a matter of personal taste, 14 songs are too many for me on a record of this style.

Then is the lack of clear scorchers like Backstreet had in Distant Thunder or Dirty Love.

Laughing on Judgement days almost sounds like a Thunder By Numbers kind of record. It is not bad, but it does not stick with you either.

Classic blues rock at it's best
This is my favourite Thunder album - and is reminiscent of early blues period Whitesnake crossed with Bad Company brought up to date - Empty City has echoes of Ain't no love in the heart of the city, but they are a tighter and much more intelligent band than 'Snake ever were. Danny Bowes voice is magnificent, only Paul Rodgers in his prime beats him for that combination of smoke and power. Luke Morley gives us rockers, acoustic ballads and blues rock at the flick of a plectrum. Yes it beats the latest Robert Johnstone`s tombstone for length and quality and variety but only just. They are fabulous live and I saw them a month ago rocking out the City Hall in Newcastle.

from a woman!
Thunder are the most underrated rock band of all time - in my opinion.. fortunately now they are getting the recognition that they have long deserved with concerts selling out consistently - i attended their Wolverhampton gig on november 21st and was enthralled! As a result we - Matt and I bought their new album Robert Johnson's tombstone and the hairs stood up on our necks - the best yet!! this brings me to Laughing on Judgement day - until now I thought this was their best!! & it will always mean so much - appealing to women as well as men - who love and hurt at times.. Empty City, A better man and my personal favourite - 'Like a satelite' for if you have ever been a good distance apart from someone you love & miss!are the best tracks for me!Dont get me wrong - they are all GOOD! Well worth your investment if you are a rock fan but have a softer side too!
