Every once in a while a band comes to my attention that simply blows me away with their simplicity. Krank is just that band. The music on this album is pure kick ass rock-n-roll.

Lead singer Ginger O'Day has that edgy raunch ' roll vocal style that only the best rock goddesses possess. Ginger's vocals are very similar to Nina Gordon of Veruca Salt (Volcano Girls). In fact, this band could best be described as Veruca Salt in a rock-n-roll ass kicking contest.

The lead singer of "Winter's Bane" at the time was Tim "Ripper" Owens who now is the lead singer of Judas Priest. Terry is a Master Time Keeper and brings a style of drumming that adds to the bands fluidity and Krank's driving sound. The most important piece to the Krank sound lies with vocalist Ginger O'Day. Chris Akin from MTV.COM and Bottomline Magazine states, "Easily the most alluring part of KRANK is the vocal work of vocalist Ginger O'Day. O'Day is very reminiscent of the silky aggressive vocal style once displayed by BELINDA CARLISLE. She's got real attitude going on in many of the songs." Ginger's sultry voice and dynamic stage presence is a direct result from years of exper
