“Classic Rock Magazine: Gods of Thunder Compilation CD Band: Freight Train Song: Overdrive - This is it man, the real thing! - cowbells, leather vests, fire and out-of-control locomotives. San Francisco's Freight Train deliver everything you love about full-tilt biker metal, from the headbanging riffs to the unabashed allegiance to grease, guts and good times. Ken McIntyre, Classic Rock Magazine Issue 261, April 2019”

“This band is influenced by bands like Rose Tattoo, NY Dolls, Kiss and Motorhead, so you know I was all over this CD. The guitar player is Dirty Al Duncan, who played with Johnny Thunders during the Que Sera Sera era, and who has a great playing style that reminds me of Montrose/Humble Pie/Ted Nugent, and is blues based, but in a Hanoi Rocks sort of way. The vocals remind me a lot of Zodiac Mindwarp & The Love Reaction and the overall sound of the band is 70’s hard rock sleaze! This album features songs like: “Overdrive” which is not unsimilar to Cat Scratch Fever and the Zodiac Mindwarp sounding “Doll”, as well as the sleazy sounding “Gotta Keep A Runnin” and the Montrose-esque “Bound To Fail” and the appropriately named “Fire It Up & Crank It”, which name checks both Motorhead and the Stooges!!! If you read any of my reviews, you’ll know that this style of music is my lifeblood, so if you really dig sleazy guitar playing and booming 70’s style hard rock, you”

“Freight Train is like a well oiled machine. They know how to produce a balls to the walls sound of punk blues oriented hard rock ... It is hard to believe the sound is from only three people ... 11 original and 2 cover songs prove why the masses wanna hop aboard this freight train ... ~ Ginger Coyote ~ Punk Globe Magazine www.punkglobe.com”
