Midnight Juggernauts CD8/10

With the wait finally over, many Midnight Juggernauts fans get to experience their latest album release, the sci-fi flavoured Dystopia. You would have heard many tracks played on multiple radio stations around Australia causing serious hype with their electronic pop sound. It has certainly been turning heads.

Currently on tour, and having just recently played in Launceston, I was fortunate enough to watch the majority of their show. I was extremely impressed with their live show and the crowd that fed off some their great songs, enthusing them greatly. Highlight tracks would have to be Road to Recovery, Into the Galaxy, Scorpius and Shadows.

The Juggernauts create a true sound of defiance with a great blend of guitar, drums, bass and synthesizers, demonstrating their ability to come up with a unique sound that lifts the chemicals in your brain up and down – proof of their skills as recording artists and live performers.

As the album continues to grow on me, the live show sure did enhance my experience in reviewing these guys; with many of their shows selling out, it’s not surprising as to why!
