Godstatefire - We Are Boozers

Review by Mely Lefebvre

Godstatefire's latest album, We Are Boozers, is a raucous and unapologetic ode to the joys and pitfalls of alcohol. From the opening track "Drink Up, Buttercup" to the closing ballad "Whiskey Tears," the band delivers a high-energy and unrelenting tribute to the drink that has fueled so many wild nights and heartbreaks.

Musically, the album is a mix of punk, rock, and country influences, with driving guitar riffs and pounding drums providing the backbone for the band's boozy anthems. Vocally, lead singer Johnny Fire's raspy, whiskey-soaked voice is the perfect match for the hard-partying lyrics, which are both humorous and poignant.

Highlights of the album include the infectious singalong chorus of "Barroom Hero," the melancholic ballad "Last Call," and the rowdy, foot-stomping title track "We Are Boozers." The album also features a few surprise guest appearances, including a duet with country superstar Miranda Lambert on the track "Drunk on Love."

Summary by Mely Lefebvre

We Are Boozers is a fun and rowdy album that will appeal to anyone who has ever raised a glass in celebration or commiseration. While some of the lyrics may be a bit too raunchy for more sensitive listeners, the album is a testament to the enduring appeal of good music and good times.
