So when an album starts off with the sound of pissing in the background, I don't think there is much else that can be surprised about. These dirty southerners bring the slurry and energized rock that remind you of bands such as Remove The Veil. The Hottness tapes together melodic guitars, crashing drums, as well as screaming and monotone singing to complete their image. The drums seem to have a controlling placement in the mix and they sometimes overpower much of the rest of the sound, which can have songs start seemingly run together. The rest of the music, such as the singing vocals (which sound like Cold), the intricate guitars, and the heavy bass, are all executed very well.

   The screaming vocals aren't really bothering but they can distract from the better parts of the record. But I really couldn't stop enjoying the overall pace of "Stay Classy" because it never really slows down and it keeps the engines going the whole time. And with an album that has riffs like roller coasters and singing that is solid (in a southern hard rock band kind of way), there is no reason not to enjoy this effort. (except for the things mentioned above.)
