Album Review: Suzi Quatro - "The Devil In Me"
Suzi Quatro's previous album, 2019's No Control was honestly the first of her 21st century output that I'd heard when I reviewed it for Pure Rawk . Maybe it's because I was expecting Devil Gate Drive part 2 but I was a little bit disappointed with the more "mature" direction, veering off into almost cocktail jazz territory in places. With this new album being touted as a return to her roots, my general thought upon reading the blurb was "oh aye? We'll see about that..." So when the opening title track of The Devil In Me kicks in with a downright filthy guitar riff before ripping into a chugging glam rock riff, it feels like the queen's returned to sit on her throne. And I'm happy to say that it sets the tone nicely for the album with the stomping riff of Hey Queenie and the bluesy stomp of Betty Who? keeping the tempo up. It's as if Suzi has taken the slightly mid-paced blues of her previous effort and casually dosed it in nitro...
