The history of this band goes back to the early 90's when the core members of Driving West were in the band Sahara Rain that released one album and then disbanded. Driving West was formed in 1999. While listening to Power I hear a clear King's X influence in the harmonic vocals. It's no surprise to see King's X guitarist Ty Tabor listed as executive producer of the recording. A song like Color Blind/Anger sounds a bit too much as an attempt to sound like King's X. But apart from that song Driving West is a different band with its heavy and groovy rock structures and funky elements (as in Must Be Love). The playing is fair, the writing is good and the production is good. However, I don't really get excited about this album but that may be a matter of taste.
