AIRBORNE – BONESHAKER REVIEW 2019

KENNY LENEHAN
Aussie rockers Airbourne released their fifth studio album Boneshaker on 25 October 2019 via Spinefarm Records. Since forming in Warrnambool Victoria Australia in 2003, they have became a hard rockin staple worldwide. Although having a unique sound and vibe the influence of their heroes appear apparent in my opinion. I take a dive into Boneshaker below.

Opening up is the title track ‘Boneshaker’ which instantly delivers that signature sound, which in my opinion is heavily influenced by AC/DC and classic rock. Its fun and a throwback to some of Airbourne’s earlier work; think pulsing basslines hard hitting drums and classic sounding guitars. Check out the Official Music Video for Boneshaker here – https://youtu.be/8GVVIZw_7nE

‘This Is Our City’, grabs my attention with the lyric “Crazy, Obscene, Gonna Kick you in the spleen,” i feel has a great touch. Nice catchy main riff adding to the classic vibes. Other Stand out tracks to check out – ‘Weapon Of War’ and ‘Rock N Roll For Life’.

Boneshaker is a great album that has a real rock n roll growl but I cant help but hear a formula that is repeated almost constantly throughout, by no means the worst effort but to me its great beer drinking album that many will find a new anthem in.
