Dig it! SHINDIG!The Shazam: exceedingly good rock 'n' roll

The UK magazine SHINDIG! digs METEOR.

The Shazam carry on the tradition of what made classic US rock like Cheap Trick and KISS both so dumb and so great.

We couldn't agree more!

METEOR - a gem!

SPIN isn't the only media voice out there that has praised METEOR, but its probably the most high-profile of accolades The Shazam has received for their 5th album. Check out Spin's Best of 2009 issue (Jan-Feb 2010) at spin.com or pick it up at your favorite newsstand. Editor Doug Brod's Editor's Letter is on page 3.
