5 Excellent - Masterpiece. A classic.

3 Average - Some good songs, some bad ones at about a half/half ratio.
2.5-2 Fair - Worth a listen, but best obtained by collectors.
1.5-1 Bad - Major problems with music, lyrics, production, etc.
0 Terrible - Waste of your life and time.
Note: Reviews are graded from 0-5, anything higher or not showing is from our old style.
Scores, however, do not reveal the important features. The written review that accompanies the ratings
is the best source of information regarding the music on our site. Reviewing is opinionated, not a
qualitative science, so scores are personal to the reviewer and could reflect anything from being
technically brilliant to gloriously cheesy fun. The best way to determine how much you may like certain music is to listen to it yourself.

Stellar hard rock
Marco Mendoza is the bassist for The Dead Daisies, on and off again member of Thin Lizzy and a former member of Black Star Riders. He's contributed to the likes of Whitesnake, Lynch Mob, Blue Murder and Ted Nugent. 'Viva La Rock' is the second solo album for the journeyman, this one courtesy of Mighty Music. The solid numbers are "Sweetest Emotions", "Viva La Rock" and bluesy "Hey Baby". The highlight is the Thin Lizzy inspired "Chinatown", which features fellow label mate Mike Tramp (White Lion). Killer record.
Recommended for fans of: Black Star Riders, Thin Lizzy, The Dead Daisies
