MP3: Sweatmaster - Animal

New rock'n'roll today from Finland's Sweatmaster. I don't find "Animal" to be as catchy their last single "Song with no words", but that's okay 'cuz it's a tough one to top. "Animal" does have a stronger hook in that guitar riff that follows each verse line. And the chorus is ridiculously simple in the best possible way. Endless repeats of a single word trumps actual singing any day. When they throw a cowbell breakdown before the final chorus, that's just the icing on the cake.
