Bravata- Lead The Sin 7”.  Killer bouncy punk rock ripper hear from this great band outta Italy. Bravata continues to bring the hits on their second single “Lead The Sin”. The title track kicks off with a tune that recalls fellow Italian Punk Rockers Taxi with big driving guitar hooks and an echoed reverberating chorus that just draws you in. On the flip is a really catchy mellower tune called ‘Rude’ that really surprised me. It sounds like Joey Ramone collaborating with Johnny Thunders writing a mellower downer tune for Thunders first solo record. The song is very well written, inspired and played with a genuine sense of passion that you don’t see in to many punk bands these days. Generally with two songers, if theirs a mellower tune, it usually doesn’t have as much of an impact as the faster tune. But on this single it does and I keep coming back to it more than the A-side. If you have’t heard Bravata, this is a good place to start. Recommended. Import from Italy.
