When you think back on classic, defining rock On¹ roll moments ­ from a Jimmy Page riff to a Kurt Cobain scream ­ virtually all of them are larger-than-life, impossible to ignore. That kind of scope is evident throughout ³THE PLEASURE AND THE GREED,² the second Atlantic release from Boston¹s Big Wreck to swing for the fences. For the past nine years, the members of Big Wreck have been doing just that, busting it out at clubs and theaters in the Northeast and beyond. Gigging on any stage that could contain their explosive sound honed the foursome¹s powerful live show, winning them both a rabid fan following as well as a contract to record their 1997 Atlantic debut, ³IN LOVING MEMORY OFS² Featuring the rock radio favorites ³That Song² and ³The Oaf (My Luck Is Wasted)² ­ a top 10 Mainstream Rock smash ­ ³IN LOVING MEMORY OFS² was also hailed by critics from coast to coast. The Boston Globe declared the album as ³a melodic hard-rock gem,² while the New York Post raved that ³Rock is back!² As the praise rolled in, Big Wreck pushed themselves even more relentlessly on the touring front, returning home only to pick up an ³Outstanding Debut Band² honor at the prestigious Boston Music Awards.
