Canadian punks Sam Coffey and the Iron Lungs dial up the good-time '70s rock punch on their self-titled third LP and debut for Dine Alone Records. The Kitchener, Ontario native and his hearty colleagues have already shown a penchant for fist-raising, melodic rock of the partying variety, though their earlier efforts came across just a shade too D.I.Y. to match their arena-sized intent. Surprisingly, after six years together, this LP marks their first venture into a proper studio and, with the aid of producer Alex Bonenfant (METZ, Crystal Castles), the sessions yield a pleasantly beefed-up production value that doesn't dim the band's freewheeling spirit. With their three guitars, keys, bass, and drums, the Iron Lungs generate a mass of sound and they come out of the gate firing on all cylinders on opener "Talk 2 Her," one of the early standouts. Drinking from the boozy headwaters of '70s power pop icons like Thin Lizzy and Cheap Trick, Coffey conjures up unfussy heavyweight riffs, injecting his old-school reference points with a yowling punk spark. The album's centerpiece is a sprawling three-parter initiated by the anthemic "Ragnarok" -- another standout -- followed by "Teenage Release" and concluded by the rousing call-and-response of "PhD," making the Iron Lungs live up to their name. As a vocalist, Coffey is a bit of a bruiser, coming across like a rough-edged Canadian Roger Daltrey without the range. Still, he reaches for the moon with what he's got and it suits his brand of rock well. No pretensions here, this is a fun, boisterous rock record made to be played loudly!
