Review:
This is the second outing from this talented quartet. Songs like “Peppermint Tribe”, “All Alright” and “All I Want” really jam. There are two good instrumentals in “Cruelty” and “Sleep”, while the tune “Chanel” has a 60’s laid back feel to it. Of course who could forget the power ballad “Love Is On The Way”, it would prove to be Saigon Kick‘s lone charting single — reaching #12.

  The style on The Lizard is an unlikely combination of metal and folk sounds, but the group pulls it off smoothly. I feel Saigon Kick was a good band and this outing deserves two thumbs up!
