Below The Belt

Twelve years ago, Danko Jones was a hungry lion trying to break of Toronto's stagnant indie-rock scene. Today, he's a well-fed beast who routinely shares arena stages with the likes of AxI Rose and Lemmy Kilmister. He's a top charting artist in Europe and he's added the titles of "Spoken Word Artist Music-magazine Columnist and Internationally Syndicated Radio Host" to his formidable list of aliases (The Mango Kid, Dr. Evening. The Brown Panther),
Below the Belt - the place where the best rock 'n' roll comes from the place where these 11 songs hit you. Where the stadium-sized- sing-along s from 2008's Never Too loud might have suggested Danko, JC and Dan had grown comfortable with their stature as one of the most consistent and dependable rock bands since AC/DC and Motorhead, on Below the Belt they sound more like the hungry power trio that first broke out nationally in Canada with 1999's
My love Is Bold EP, which provided the first hints that these garage-punk noisemakers had the pop chops to go global. That Like Dynamite" echoes the opening riff to that EP's breakthrough single Bounce is but a surface indication of Below the Belt's back-to-basics intent. The real proof can be heard in the way Danko Jones apply their now-well-honed melodic sensibilities to the restless, scrappy energy that defined the band's early years, resulting in power-pop knockouts like Active Volcanoes" (cut from the loins of Danko's all-time favorite KISS song, "Love Her Ali I Can") and the sugar-chocolate-dipped " (I Can't Handle) Moderation." But as much as Below the Belt captures the sound of clic Danko Jones, it marks an evolution as well. On previous set-list standards like " Woman" and "Love Is Unkind, Danko was eager to play the victim, exposing his badly broken heart so that others could learn from his example and not make the same mistakes.
