Sparks the Rescue sounds and looks like Metro Station - only better. These guys from Portland/Maine were the supporting act on the european tour of The All-American Rejects, who are currently hitting the charts worldwide with their catchy tune Gives you Hell. Alex & Co from Sparks the Rescue have released their debut album Eyes to the Sun a little while ago. Their myspace and their behavior prove that these guys know exactly how to promote theirselves and how to perform a perfect show. At the end of their 30 minutes opening performance, they threw a few flyers with their names and myspace link out to the fans. And Sparks the Rescue rocks like hell live on stage. They were the cherry topping on the All-American Rejects cake. Absolutley.

These guys are worth checking out. I definitly recommend you to listen to the song Hello Mexico - it will stay in your mind forever. The other songs Autumn,Skeleton, Pine Tree State and My heart radio are also very good.

These guys are going to be very successful soon!
