In the grand tapestry of rock 'n' roll history, there are those who effortlessly embody the spirit of the genre and then there are those who try a bit too hard. Unfortunately, HAWKINS falls into the latter category with their latest album "Ain't Rock N Rollin". As the title suggests, this album is a fine example of what rock 'n' roll isn't. From the cliched guitar riffs to the uninspired lyrics, HAWKINS seems to have missed the memo on what makes this genre so timeless. It's as if they took all the most overused rock 'n' roll tropes and threw them together without any semblance of creativity or originality. The lead singer's gravelly voice is reminiscent of a poor imitation of your drunk uncle at a karaoke bar, and the production is so muddy that you can barely make out individual instruments. The lack of cohesion in the songs makes it feel more like a collection of rough demos rather than a cohesive album. Overall, "Ain't Rock N Rollin" feels like a parody of a rock 'n' roll album, rather than a genuine tribute to the genre. It's a shame, as HAWKINS clearly has talent, but they seem too caught up in trying to fit into a mold that simply doesn't suit them. Stick to the classics, lads.
