457.0. "Company of wolves" by KETJE::VLASIU () Tue Feb 12 1991 09:33

    Has anyone heard about Company of Wolves ? They released an album in
    1990 and I would like to know how does it sound.
    
    Thanks,

457.1Thumbs up !BTOVT::BRONSONMr. Rogers is a metal head!Tue Feb 12 1991 10:076
    
      I bought their release before I purchased the Black Crowes release.
    I think they are a more refined Black Crowes. I liked the sound of
    Company of Wolves! Good pick and the music grows on you.

Re. -1

Does it means they are more hard rock than heavy ? I listened at the occasion 
The Black Crowes, but I have to relisten them.
Thanks,

Sorin
457.3This reply probably confuses the issue...BTOVT::BRONSONMr. Rogers is a metal head!Wed Feb 13 1991 08:077
    
     Even lighter than heavy and softer than hard...They are a Black Crowes
    type of rockin' bar band. I think the first tune has a country style
    to it. A few of the tunes approach hard in a way....I liked the
    release better than B_C's, but they ended up with little to no airplay.

    I have a CD single from them that someone gave me. They are just like a
    hard rock type of band, sort of reminded me of a Night Rangerish type
    of Rock, but I didn't like them.  I didn't think of even comparing them
    to the Black Corwes, but then again, I can't stand that band either :')
    
    
457.5Maybe my tape player is playing slower than yours..BTOVT::BRONSONMr. Rogers is a metal head!Wed Feb 13 1991 11:416
    
       I didn't mean they sounded exactly like B'Crowes...what I meant is
     that they have a southern ring to them. They are more studio oriented
     and not quite as raw as BC.
