‘She’ is a mighty tasty slice of hard rock with an eastern flair by a group of guys from the bottom half of the globe (Melbourne, to be exact) that go by the name of Tenpenny Joke. Big hooks, big sound, strong melody. All the things that make up a great hard rock track are present and accounted for. And as an added bonus, we get a strong melodic guitar solo thrown in to put the icing on the cake.

The phrasing of the vocals on this track, getting the duo treatment from Anthony Casey and Brian Rimmer, is what really gives it a different feel from the run-of-the-mill generic rock you hear pouring out of most “Alternative” stations nowadays. But it all comes back to the chorus and ‘She’ really delivers.

‘She’ is exactly the kind of track that I’m looking for in the Hard Rock genre. Tenpenny Joke step into an arena that is packed with soundalikes and wannabes and throw down the gauntlet with a track that sounds new and fresh. Oh yeah, and it doesn’t hurt that the song all out rocks.

And for those of you who are looking for a little more Tenpenny, you can find this track on their 2005 release ‘Ambush On All Sides’.

[EDIT (05.26.2006) - Corrected the vocalists names. Sorry guys!]
