Rock artists Tim Ratcliff and Ken Bailey explode ontoRocketpoll.com with "Bombs Away," a biting commentary on truth and integrity and the use or non-use thereof by our nation's leaders. The lyric points no explicit fingers at those who may be guilty but suffice it to say that a familiar patriotic refrain repeats its way throughout, leaving no mistake at Ratcliff's and Bailey's target. The duo's strong rock beat, bombastic guitars and clever lyric (such as "I have lead you, I've mislead you, I must leave you . . . holding the bag") are engaging and entertaining. More significantly, it is nice to hear artists taking a stand and conveying a message rather than delivering the same vapid lyrics commonly heard in today's commercial music. After all, it is artists who bring about change in this world, and if they stop then we are all lost.
