Album Review: Brian Fallon | ‘Sleepwalkers’

Over at Best Fit, I did a short piece on Brian Fallon’s second solo LP, Sleepwalkers.

If you like Fallon’s classic rock worship, you’ll like pretty much anything he’s ever done, including this new record.

Here, he throws in a few new flavors to his Springsteen-isms. It’s not a great album, but at least give the fun lead single “Forget Me Not” a try. That, or you could just check out his slightly superior first album, Painkillers.
