Album Review: Gesundheit Teen Age Fool by The Fall Guys
Alright, let’s talk about Gesundheit Teen Age Fool, the latest rock & roll gem from The Fall Guys. Hailing from the US and released under Rosemont, this album has that raw, unfiltered energy you don’t hear every day. It’s not trying too hard to be perfect, and honestly? That’s what makes it stick.
First up, the title track, “Gesundheit.” Yeah, I know, it’s a weird name for a song, but hey, it works. This tune grabs you with its punchy guitar riffs right off the bat. It’s got this driving rhythm that feels like cruising down an open highway with the windows down—reckless but kinda freeing. What really stays with me is how simple yet catchy the chorus is. You’ll find yourself humming it later, maybe even sneezing along if you’re feeling dramatic (geddit?).
Then there’s “Teen Age Fool,” which hits different. If “Gesundheit” is all about speed and swagger, this one slows things down just enough to let the lyrics sink in. It’s got this moody vibe, like reminiscing about dumb mistakes you made as a teenager—but in a good way, ya know? The vocals feel rough around the edges, like they’re telling you a story over beers at some dive bar. There’s a solo midway through that’s not flashy or anything, but man, does it hit the spot. Feels real.
The Fall Guys aren’t reinventing rock & roll here, but they don’t need to. They’re doing their thing, keeping it authentic, and honestly, that’s refreshing. These tracks remind me of why I fell in love with rock music in the first place—it’s messy, loud, and full of heart.
Here’s the kicker though: after listening to this album, I realized something. Rock & roll isn’t dead; it’s just hanging out in places we don’t expect anymore. Like, who names an album Gesundheit Teen Age Fool and gets away with it? Only these guys could pull it off. So yeah, give it a spin. You might just find your new favorite jam—or at least have a fun time headbanging awkwardly in your room.
