Illegal 02:55
lyrics
buy track
Hiding place they come to meet Guilty touch on the car's back seat Nervous glance cast all around Vigilant to every sound Tender whispers, glassy eyes Words of fondness melt the ice Watchful peeks, sinful kiss Not a second do they wanna miss Illegal feelings, illegal crave Breath to breath, eye to eye Lip to ear, sigh to sigh Touch to touch, lip to lip Lost in lust, there is so much to sip Stolen moments being robbed by clock Counting minutes, so hard to stop Guilty conscience comes to play All what's legal gone astray Illegal feelings, illegal tear, Illegal crave, illegal lipstick smear

Short Circuit 02:59
lyrics

I get busy rubbing my head I get no rhymes, my mind is dead I feel like I could cuss and swear My struggling thoughts seem to gasp for air No trace, no hint of a clue in sight The line I wrote is simply just not right Sometimes I even call his name But for obvious reason it is still the same I'll let the devil buy my soul I'm burning out I'm losing control Another swig brings no relief I'm stuck, I need another riff Is up there any single sober brain cell No hint no nothing that would ring a bell The light is blinking or is it my eyes Or a brain short circuit and another cell fries I'll let the devil buy my soul I'm burning out I'm losing control Another swig brings no relief I'm stuck, I need another riff Is up there any single sober brain cell No hint no nothing that would ring a bell Sometimes I even call His name But for obvious reason it is still the same I'll let the devil buy my soul I'm burning out I'm losing control Another swig brings no relief I'm stuck, I need another riff

I hear the train I hear the train cutting through the mist I hear the train, again A freight train running over my fears Got me a tent under the road way Cold at night and I'm an easy prey I Tried to make things right But life is a fight, tight Living on a borrowed time When life gets too unforgiving You get lost in this ruthless maze It's the price you pay for this damn rat race Got me a tent under the road way Cold at night... and I'm an easy prey I Tried to make things right But life is a tight fight Living on a borrowed time When life gets too unforgiving You stumble on your dreams you chase It's the dues you pay for this damn rat race

Lockdown, I'm locked in a locked town Lockdown, I'm locked in a locked town We're living apart but close together Hiding at home till things get better Lockdown, I'm hiding in a locked town Lockdown, I'm hiding in a locked town I'm alive but dead I'm free but captive But I can't go out to get active Streets are empty, I see no smiles I see no people but just eyes Nothing is for life, don't take things for granted None of us was ready when this shit got started I'm alive but dead, I'm free but captive Hiding in a locked town Hiding in a locked town I'm alive but dead, I'm free but captive Hiding in a locked town

Don't Blame On The Rain 03:10

Since you were born You’ve always been a good boy You made this bitter house Sound like a house of joy We used to sing along When the mood was right Happy all we were with him out of sight You've always been a giver, Cared for the weak Had a heart for poor ones, And felt for the sick You've feared for the loved ones, Drained your heart for love Sure enough you were She was sent straight from up above I can see your sorrow Even though you think I can't No answers given While your soul's being drained Expectations blown away While hope is on the loose And every time your eyes tear up You blame it on the rain Don't blame it on rain

Brown bottle flue gave me the major blow My eyes look like two pissholes in the snow My head goes round and round, my hopes are low I let my guts go down the drain My brain starts to bounce I can't stand the pain I wanna cut myself loose to kill the flame The whole round day I slept like a log I’m sore and trembling like a shitting dog I can feel my blood boil hard, and I need a hug. I still have my keys but my wallet's gone My tongue’s like camel’s ass in a sandstorm Somebody call the vet to put me down Can anyone take off the pain? Before I'll go numb or insane Can anyone silence my brain? Before I go get drunk again

Pleasure Girl 03:50

Living on a dime a day Ain't freaking goddamn easy She wakes up and starts to pray For something warm and cheesy What she had to do that day Was to be sheer unforgiving Jobless with no place to stay She had no choice but to give in But odds are bad She ends up hungry scraping for a dime Feeling filthy, client gone Looking at her own reflection Who's not guilty cast the stone We all are far from perfection “Mirror, mirror on a wall, I want this feeling to be gone” “I wish I could wash it all away” “Mirror, mirror on a wall, I want this feeling to be gone” And she wakes up to another day in vain…

Whiskey woman, you knocked me down to your feet Powerful your charm and taste is what I need Whiskey woman, you got me stunned and dazed All my thoughts seem to be blurred they seem so hazed Whiskey woman, you threw me down to my knees You can make me crawl behind you with big ease Whiskey woman, you’ve grabbed my heart and soul Loving you with no brakes is my only goal And I float with you again High on the cosmic water Whiskey woman, I did get hooked on you I'm drunk with the thought you do love me to Whiskey woman, I don't wanna sober up There ain't no way am I gonna give you up And I float with you again High on the cosmic water And I feel you flow in my veins Making me dizzy like the Johnny Walker Whiskey woman! Sipping you slowly nip by nip I get dizzy bit by bit And you touch my mind And you drive me wild Whiskey woman! And I float with you again High on the cosmic water And I feel you flow in my veins Making me dizzy like the Johnny Walker Whiskey woman!

Illusion 03:51
lyrics

There you stand here trembling in your trench coat Among the evergreens You fight your hands to stay deep in your pockets Hoping no one sees Time gets still so do trees in expectation To overhear your heart Up and close you look as genuine sensation As pure piece of art And I'm dreaming a dream of you Being sure you'll turn into illusion There you live in a house by the water Among trees of green Laced with love so damn hard to utter One love sure is a sin And every time I come into my senses When I'm back to sane Loving you needs no pretenses Besides you're still the same illusion Illusion, that's what you are Illusion, that's what you are And I'm absorbing the light of you Every photon that cuts me through And I'm dreaming a dream of you Hoping you don't turn into illusion Illusion, that's what you are Illusion, that's what you are Illusion, that's what you are Illusion, that's what you are And I'm dreaming a dream of you Hoping you don't turn into illusion Symphonic arrangement - Paweł Woźniak

Wes Galczynski - volcals, guitar
Pawel Gielareck - bass
Arkadiusz Rębisz - drums

After quite a long break we return with a new 13 track album for you to enjoy and share the news with the World. You gotta turn it up to enjoy it even harder ;) If you couldn't wait, wait no more ;)

Wes Galczynski & Power Train is a Blues-Rock band formed in Stalowa Wola, Poland in May 2012. The band's line-up consists of Wes Galczynski (vocals, guitar), Pawel Gielarek (bass), Filip Ciurus (drums).

"It’s been sometime since I first encountered Wes Gałczyński & Power Train at the closing concert at Blues Nad Bobrem in Boleslawiec, POland. I went to that gig with minimal expectations but I came out of the Old Theatre having witnessed something special. Their first album appropriately called No1 was and still is, one of my go to albums when I need an infusion of low down dirty blues rock. So does the new album “illegal” stack up to the high standards of "No 1"?

The band consists of a powerhouse engine room made up of Paweł Gielarek on bass Arkadiusz Rębisz on drums with of course Wes Gałczyński up front with his lead, rythym, bottleneck guitar and rasping mid Atlantic vocals. Before we go any further a big plus as always with this band is the quality of the playing which is top notch and this is helped by a great sound mix. You can really hear all the individual band members instruments as well as the vocals without any one being intrusive or dominant which really shows how well these guys work together. Having said this, the great mix doesn’t make this album too “clean” and allows the dirty gritty side to come through which is important for this type of music and band.

I won’t go into the individual tracks on the album, suffice to say that all 13 rock. This is a well balanced album that flows well. I feel that it is a progression from No1 but it doesn’t stray too far from the territory that we know and love and for me this is the right decision as too many bands try to change too much on their second album which can be disappointing for us fans. Happily this is not the case here.

From the upbeat first track right through to the rock ballad with a string arrangement (yes you heard me right) this album keeps your attention because it doesn’t become too samey. With each listen this album just keeps getting better and builds throughout with, for me, the trilogy of Brown Bottle Flu, Pleasure Girl and Whiskey Woman really emphasising the heavier side of this band and I found myself banging my head in the car just like that famous scene in Waynes world to Bohemian Rhapsody. The album finishes with a heart felt ballad “illusion” with Wes’s guitar and voice perfectly mixed before the band kick in. For me this is one of Wes’s finest vocal performances, full of emotion and one that obviously means a lot to him.

I will finish by saying that whilst listening to this album I got up to make myself a cup of tea and could hear my wife, singing the chorus to “Don’t Blame On The Rain”. She’s not normally a music lover but she loved this album. a fitting compliment.

So something for everyone here and if you like great rock music you must get this album".
