CD: Blue Factory’s “Limekiln”
Monday, April 26th, 2010
(Hohob Records, 2010):
Roaring out of the wilds of Poestenkill, Blue Factory has built a strong, rock-solid musical foundation with their debut album, “Limekiln.”
At the core of the fearsome four-piece band are the brothers Crawley – Jim on vocals and guitar with Joe on drums. Veterans of such fave Nippertown bands from days gone by as Crawdad, Private Plain and the Brink, this time around the Crawleys are banging it out for the sheer fun of playing rock & roll – big, crunchy power chords, captivating, ear-tantalizing riffs and a walloping back-beat.
The Crawleys are joined by vocalist-guitarist Jim Temple (of Private Plain) and bassist Mike Hayes (of the Brink), making Blue Factory something of a family reunion.
