Heaven Tonight

Cheap Trick

The definitive power pop blueprint. Massive guitar riffs and 12-string bass collide with Beatles-esque harmonies and a cynical, late-seventies suburban bite.

It's the best record the Beatles never made, if the Beatles had been from Illinois and played through Marshall stacks.

A high-octane celebration of rock and roll that hides a cynical, slightly dark suburban heart.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The massive, world-conquering opening power chords of Surrender that define the entire power pop genre.
The unsettling, psychedelic swirl of the title track where the band leans into a darker, drug-induced haze.
The relentless, heavy-metal-adjacent stomp of Auf Wiedersehen that showcases the band's aggressive underbelly.
