Critical Praise for Sandman Viper Command:
"Sandman Viper Command conjures up references to Sloan - but in away that is still fresh... for a debut recording, this is a standout on so many levels... the band to watch in 2010" - Hamilton View"
"Strawberry Quick" presents a band with quite a bit of range, and the young group is poised to make a bigger dent in the scene." - Citizen Dick
The Song:
"Rough Love" is the latest single to emerge from the Canadian indie-rockers Sandman Viper Command, and as opposed to their last single - which placed a heavy focus on their pop sensibilities - "Rough Love" is more reserved, drawing out the track to just over five minutes. But patience is the key word with "Rough Love." At first, it may simply seem like the perfect hangover tune, with direction being uncertain, that is until you reach the 3:30 mark, where Queen-esque riffs begin to get tossed around left and right, leading to an all-out, guitar crunching solo.
"Rough Love" was recently released on 7" b/w another new song named "New Fast." If interested in a copy, or a copy of Sandman Viper Command's debut album Everybody See This, feel free to request. Sandman Viper Command will be concluding their U.S. tour for 2011 with a one-off in Chicago this Saturday, October 29, followed by a show in Rochester, NY. Details can be found below.

The
Background:
Sandman Viper Command is comprised of four best friends (Rob Janson, Aaron Harvey, Dan Reardon, Matt Meyer). Leaving behind the college textbooks and replacing them with electric guitars, Sandman Viper Command isolated themselves for six months in a barn on the outskirts of Hamilton, Ontario with producer Dave King. From the session came the impressive 12-song, independently released debut album Everybody See This. Performing a handful of U.S. dates for the first time this October, Sandman Viper Command are aiming to take the world by storm.
