Harkening back to the days of creamy guitar and bittersweet melody, Adam McIntyre's debut album, Rockstars & Superheroes, seems to have been beamed from the 100,000 watt antenna of 1973's finest FM rock station. Feeding on a steady diet of Big Star, Ray Davies, Ian Hunter, Jason Falkner and The Move, Adam has re-envisioned himself as a rising rock hero through a lightly-conceptual thread of twelve tunes. The songs jump out with overwhelming honesty and optimism while avoiding theatrical pomposity.
