We Want Action by Fever Dog
Via Fever Dog
Grab some glitter and the craziest platforms you can find because glam rock is back baby. With the rock n’ roll resurgence happening, it was only a matter of time before glam rock made the inevitable return to popularity – and Fever Dog is leading the charge. “We Want Action”, the latest single by the California desert based band, brings all the nostalgia of the seventies with a fresh take on the classic glam rock sound.
Fever Dog is on a mission, in their own words, towards a “worldwide rock and roll takeover starting now” with the release of “We Want Action”. This song grabs you from the jump with one of the most electrifying riffs I have heard in a long time. It is big and loud in the best way possible, and not mention, catchy as hell. Fever Dog is known for exciting and electrifying live performances and this song has all the makings for being an incredible song for crowd participation. The repeated chanting of “we want action” gives you no choice but to raise your fist and scream it along with them. It is energizing, exhilarating, and is paving the way for a full-blown glam rock revival. This song is an anthemic demand for the freedom to rock n’ roll.
The accompanying music video perfectly represents what this song is all about. It features a group of young kids gathered around a Dungeons and Dragons style game until one of their parents shows up and takes it away from them – but worry not – they have a spare copy hidden under the table. The kids roll a 20, summoning the band to burst through the walls of their living room and zap their mother into another dimension before she can take their game again. Ultimately, the band wins her over and everyone rejoins in the living room around the game where they proceed to accidentally blow everything up. The video is full of comical effects and overdramatized acting and perfectly captures the energy of this song.
Whether it is the music, the stage presence, or, most notably, the style, glam rock prides itself in being theatrical and over the top. It combines simplicity with eccentricity and creates some of the most undeniably enjoyable music we know. And that is exactly what Fever Dog did with “We Want Action”. This song is action packed, eccentric, and will undoubtedly have you screaming “we want action” at top of your lungs as you join Fever Dog on their mission for a total rock n’ roll takeover.
