Oslo’s The Adam Opens The Rock n Roll Door And Lets Cathy In For A Song

The Adam
Cathy Feat. Lasse Storm
Stray Cat Records
 
It’s been a fair while since Geronimo, The Adam’s debut single that went out and did the business with full dress. Inspired by the British Invasion of pop and rock from the 1960s, The Adam brings a modern sensibility to the direct and energetic breed of guitar-based leg movers. Living near Oslo, Adam Olsson is a bit of a veteran when it comes to musical performance. He began his career as part of The Good The Bad, who went on to play alongside Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Wayne Kramer of MC5 and he also enjoyed a stint in MØ’s iconic pop group. This latest bout of lovelorn nostalgia gives The Adam a reminiscent edge and a great track in one easy to swallow sandwich. As we enjoy this latest number, we can get taste of next year’s new album that will mark a prominent milestone for this empowered and enigmatic songwriter.
 
It bursts open like a pinnata and showers us with rock n roll goodness. A blues rock rhythm progresses as the chords smash the melodic riff. Lyrics begin, a style similar to Guns n Roses and Alice in Chains crashes down with the surging drums and thuddery of the bass. A song about Cathy, we get to know the way she makes The Adam feel with serenades of feeling. Lasse Storm provides a brilliant power to the terrific composition that creaks under its own talent. Sailing guitars streak over the waves that rise and fall to the marching drumbeat.
