Mixing tuneful but unrestrained punk, hardcore, 1970s rock, country and self-effacing kitsch, one early review described their sound as "some unholy mix of KISS and Hank Williams thrown under the wheels of a runaway train." All elements contributed to the band being credited with a “grunge precursor” title, a claim often recited in comparisons between pre-Nirvana Minneapolis and Seattle bands. Change Of Fortune has been three years in the making and the wait is most certainly worth it. The first single “Supersonic” will have Soul Asylum loyalists happy to discover the group's trademark ragged-but-right sound is still very much intact.
