I don’t know a whole bunch about IZOD, other than that they were from Toronto. I think this five track EP was their only release. Now, I have heard bands a million times worse, who went way further down the line than Izod did.

Vocalist Steve Lewis is quite a revelation and possesses one hell of a set of pipes and along with guitarist Mark Fodero they really drive this forgotten hard rockin’ monster along. It’s prime time hair metal, no more no less but I really like this a lot. The five tracks all killer no filler, the best of which is Bitch Is Hot (I know) and Overdrive. They are both feel good anthems.

If you come across a copy then snap it up because it’s such a fun record.

8/10 from The Grooveman.
