My name is RICH. I sing in the best rock and roll band in the world. You can check out our real webpage here - http://ILoveRich.net There’s a couple places where I think hip- hop has it over rock. Both are lyrical areas and they involve boasting and feuding. Not since Skynrd called out Neil Young in the hot summer of 1914 has there been a case (that I know of) where one band pisses on another by name. It happens in hip-hop every day, in fact I’m certain it’s happening as I write this. A piece and/or grill is getting all got up in while lyrics are being scribbled on a pack of Newports for an answer song. Or Parliaments, it could be Parliaments. Or whatever. Anyway, I think it’s high time someone started doing this, unfortunately it’s not our friend Rich. Of the band I Love Rich. He does however boast, a lot. I mean I haven’t seen boasting like this since I passed the GED test (the second time). He’s the king of rock’n’roll, all the ladies want his jock, King Kong ain’t got shit on him and on and on. The twist here is Rich is not really Rolling Stone magazine cover material. He has sort of… an everyman look about him. If everyman had a giant head, red hair and wore airbrushed t-shirts of themselves. When I first looked over his latest CD Year of the Rich, I really didn’t know what to make of it. It seemed like a joke, but the fucking joke was on me because Rich totally kicked my ass.The opener, I’m the King of Rock’n’Roll, sounds like a lost KISS song, and is delivered with so much conviction you almost do believe he IS the king of rock’n’roll. Then you remember Dio and you’re like….no, but for 40 seconds or so… Other standouts include the title cut and What Every Woman Wants, which happens, incidentally, to be Rich. On the track Turning Me On, Rich makes it clear it’s not actually the chick that’s floating his boat, it’s the fact that she’s singing his songs to him. There is a theme at work here. The disc is full of great recycled AC/DC riffs and the guitar playing (handled by Chuck E.Sleeze and Full Throttle) is fucking killer. Like almost every tune I’m like…damn…that’s a fucking cool riff, I’m stealing that. I say it out loud just like that and my dad (who lives with me) yells/asks me from the living room who I’m talking to, and I tell him like (all crazy) ‘I’m trying to make my lunch!!” and then he goes back to watching Sports Center. Now, Rich is not really the best singer and the songs do tend to all sort of sound the same but in this case, it’s not a bad thing really. The Ramones and AC/DC always sound the same and I can’t complain about them. So be it, 2006 is Year of the Rich. Here’s hoping next year is the year of raining beer and money sandwiches . Hold the bread on mine.
