The self-released collection of nine high-octane tracks is entitled <em>Full Tilt <\/em>and it kicks off aggressively like a drag strip race car with &#8220;Blaster&#8221;, a totally ripping song that features Weitzel&#8217;s blazing guitar skills and quirky but perfectly over-the-top vocals. The album oozes with that 70&#8217;s Rock N Roll vibe of just letting it all &#8220;hang out&#8221;, and that&#8217;s just what you the get on other <em>head-bangers<\/em> like &#8220;One For The Road&#8221;, &#8220;Skool Daze&#8221;, and my personal favorite &#8220;City of Devils&#8221;.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nI was thoroughly impressed by the overall production by Weitzel and co-producer Chris Howorth of IN THIS MOMENT fame. Track eight&#8217;s &#8220;Living In Stereo&#8221; comes off like an intro to a porn film soundtrack, but you can&#8217;t help but get caught up in the literal cheesy camp that Weitzel has injected into <em>Full Tilt<\/em> mostly due to his scorching Ace Frehley-on-steroids guitar attack, because it just straight up rocks your face off. I can&#8217;t wait to hear what 3\/13 develops into, because I think that with a little more polish and work under the hood, this band could become a serious act to contend with. I feel it&#8217;s all up to how much harder Weitzel and the boys want to push this killer Heavy Metal machine.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i66.photobucket.com\/albums\/h259\/rsid999\/Storm-08-june.gif\" alt=\"tmd\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i189.photobucket.com\/albums\/z89\/themetalden2007\/BIGROCKETEND1113337777-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"tmd\" \/><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<big><br \/>\n<strong>ROCKET REVIEW:<\/strong><\/big><big><strong> <\/strong><\/big><big><strong>[starreview tpl=16]<br \/>\nTHREE THIRTEEN &#8211; &#8220;Full Tilt&#8221; (CD)<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>(Phantom Republic\/2011)<\/em><small><br \/>\n<br \/>\n1.
