Ex-Hanoi Rocks Bassist Collaborates with Former Bandmate on New Album
Sami Yaffa, onetime bassist for the Finnish band Hanoi Rocks and the New York Dolls, holds down the low end on former Hanoi Rocks frontman Michael Monroe’s latest solo effort, Blackout States.
The album “has all the ingredients of a perfect rock‘n’roll record – strong melodic songs with great meaningful lyrics that defy all clichés, delivered with a punky, ballsy attitude by a killer band,” Monroe said.
Check out “Old King’s Road” from the new album to see what you think of his description of the music:
Blackout States is available on CD and as a digital download (iTunes and Amazon MP3).
