Offical Band Website = www.hudsonfalcons.net Facebook = Facebook Page Born in the swamps of New Jersey, the HUDSON FALCONS are following a sound that can only be achieved by playing more than 1,200 shows from the Jersey Shore to Germany. The influences of the road have clearly found their way through the well-worn tires of the band van and into the FALCONs music. More than ever, there are traces of South Texas and a little bit of heartland stomp mixing in with the New Jersey soul and swagger that has come to symbolize the HUDSON FALCONS and brought them a loyal following both in the United States and abroad. Cultivating a new, fuller sound that is as much Replacements as it is Ramones, the HUDSON FALCONS are, as always, ready to prove it all nightnot just through your speakers but in the backrooms, basements, and bars of the open road. More than a decade after Mark Linskey started the HUDSON FALCONS, the fire of the bands first disc, Desperation and Revolution, has yet to be extinguished and, if anything, has only grown stronger. All the proof you need is on the bands most recent disc, Desire to Burn, and the songs now being prepped for Dancing Underneath the Moonlight, due out in 2011. While the rest of the music world tries to figure out a way to make the 21st-century music lover aware of great bands, the HUDSON FALCONS have followed the old-fashioned route: touring, touring, touring, repairing the van, and then more touring (Sleep, Drive, Rock N Roll, Repeat is both one of their songs and a HUDSON FALCONS mantra). Over the years, the HUDSON FALCONS have made a habit of offering impassioned, straight-from-the-gut performances. Regardless of the city, the turnout, or the general hazards that life on the road brings, the HUDSON FALCONS come out with all guns firing when they hit the stage, never delivering a show that is anything less than heartfelt and hell-raising. Though likely best known in punk circles, the HUDSON FALCONS dont neatly fit into that genreor, in fact, any genre. Linskey echoes the prevailing sentiment among true music loversthere is only good music and bad music. And, for Linskey, good music means music without boundaries, without compromise, and without fear. For the sadly uninitiated, heres a little of what you can expect from the HUDSON FALCONS: churning, slashing guitars; a pounding, forceful rhythm; covers of everybody from Willie Dixon to the Dictators; and, throughout, Linskeys gritty, honest vocals, which carry a hard-earned realism most bands are never able to find. Simply put, the HUDSON FALCONS deal in honest, rock and roll songs, best heard where they were likely first formedon the open road, with burdens getting further behind with every mile marker. Linskey and the HUDSON FALCONS will never stray from their mission to be a voice for the unsung, working-class heroes of the world, and now with the hard-rocking intensity of four full-length studio records in their pockets and Dancing Underneath the Moonlight on the way, HUDSON FALCONS stands poised to bring their message of truth, justice, and the Falcon way back out to the masses. The road beckons once again, so the HUDSON FALCONS must heed the call. Armed with a newfound purpose to explore the influences the road has provided, the HUDSON FALCONS are ready to carry the torch for the lonely, the desperate, the determinedthe ones who need rock and roll now more than ever. Thanks to the HUDSON FALCONS, help is definitely on the way. Click To Enlarge HUDSON FALCONS & KING SIZE BRACES - "Attack" CD/MP3 Need some rock-n-roll Oi! StreetPunk???
