Vicious

"Halestorm is aptly named, as vowel-averse frontwoman Lzzy Hale has an F5 tornado for a voice, which she uses to great effect on her band's fourth studio long-player. The follow-up to 2015's Into the Wild Life, which was the group's highest-charting outing to date, Vicious doesn't deviate too much from the stock hedonism of its predecessor - the holy hard rock trinity of sex, drugs, and rock & roll is alive and well - but it connects on such a visceral and familiar level that listeners will likely be unable to resist the urge to turn things up to 11 ... Four albums in and Halestorm appear to have officially hit their stride".

"Overflowing energy and emotion, Halestorm's Vicious focuses on bold, vitalizing music and the beautifully frightening, breathtaking vocals of Lzzy Hale. Returning to a harder, more compact sonic environment, on Vicious, Halestorm have taken the roots of past creativity and used them to grow even further into the craft of writing deep, profound, and defiant music to push the boundaries of Rock".
