THE DICTATORS
Call them what you will... proto-punk, punk, what-have-you... The Dictators have been, are, and always will be the living, fire-breathing definition of Rock and Roll. Back with The Dictators, their first new studio album in 23 years, the current iteration of the band – 50 years into the game - is faster, louder and better than ever before.
Founding members Andy Shernoff (bass, vocals) and Ross The Boss (lead guitar, vocals) are joined by drummer Albert Bouchard (ex-Blue Öyster Cult) and lead singer/guitarist Keith Roth (Frankenstein 3000) for 10 songs that cement The Dictators as vital, relevant and important now as they were back in 1975. Even though the riffs and melodies are brand new, the music is unmistakably Dictators down to the bone. The Dictators is the newest, brightest jewel in the crown of the quintessential American Rock and Roll band. DFFD indeed.
