Our Take

Pull on your leather jacket, strap on your helmet, and get ready to rev your engines, because Johnny Moped is back with a bang in "The Search For Xerxes." This album is a wild, raucous ride through the seedy underbelly of British punk, complete with fuzzed-out guitars, pounding drums, and the snarling vocals of frontman Johnny Moped himself.

Johnny Moped's signature mix of raw energy and irreverent humor is on full display here, making for a truly electrifying listening experience.

But don't let the punk rock attitude fool you - there's some serious musicianship on display here, with intricate guitar solos, tight rhythms, and catchy hooks that will have you singing along in no time. Tracks like "Psycho" and "Incendiary Device" showcase the band's ability to balance aggression with melody, resulting in some truly infectious tunes.

Overall, "The Search For Xerxes" is a testament to Johnny Moped's enduring power as a punk rock icon. In a music industry that's always changing, it's refreshing to see a band that's stayed true to their roots and continues to deliver the goods.
