The Hard Rock Band With A Porno-riffic Name

Why exactly name your hard rock band “Big C*ck?” Shock value? To make people think “what the heck?” and hope they look further? Did someone in the band say, “sex sells” – although it doesn’t necessarily sell, but it does draw attention. Somebody direct these guys to Seth Godin for some marketing guidance. And hide their Jack Daniels!

It would be easy to call the four men of this band a bunch of idiots if it wasn’t for one thing, and that’s Big C*ck just happens be a very fun hard rock band. Vocalist Robert Mason pops out of the speakers with a voice that is not out of place in either a bar, theater or arena. It simply fills the room – no matter how big or small - and kicks some serious bootie. Mason, a casualty of George Lynch’s Lynch Mob and ex-Cry of Love, certainly deserves more recognition, but the rest of the band ain’t too shabby either. The riffs and lyrical content are not far from the AC/DC School of Barroom Boogie. Nor are they too distant from anything Dokken, Lynch Mob, or King Kobra ever did.

Find the sounds of Big C*ck here and also at the bands myspace page.

If you like a retro 80’s hard rock feel (but minus the Aquanet), then go out and get some Big C*ck. But prepare an answer for when that one wise guy friend shouts out at a party, “Hey! How did you find a band called Big C*ck? What were you really looking for on the Internet?”
The answer is simple – a band with an old school sound, but with a name that might be too difficult for the manly-men to blurt out in public. Unless you are the cop from The Village People.

Review:
"Right from the opening track Big Cock reintroduces us to the excesses and perfection of 80s hard rock. Solos, hooks, rhythm, sex, fisticuffs, Year Of The Cock has ample amounts of each. They can play a song like "Bad Motherf*cker" without sounding contrived and pull off the egotistical "King Of Cool". Really there isn't a bad song on this disc, you can safely throw the CD player on random and whatever three minute tune comes up would be a winner." - Sleazeroxx
