Andrew Cushing’s bass is also a standout as well as some great guitar work. The crowd will be bouncing up and down with their hands in the air. This rocker doesn’t slow things down and DeJesus sounds great and delivers a catchy, memorable chorus that will make a great song to hear live. It is a modern rock song that fully assaults your senses before going straight into the first single from the album “Ready for War (Pray for Peace)”. The album opens with the title track and third single “Notorious” and comes screaming out of the gate with heavy drums and a wave of guitars. After the slight disappoint I had with their last release, ‘Getaway’, ‘Notorious’ makes amends and proves they can still put out quality work.

I would rather have an album of 9 great songs than an album of 14 songs with a bunch of filler. The album is only 9 songs and at a little over 3 minutes for the average song, you are in and out in about 30 minutes. How long did it take? Well, the first single came out in September 2016 which is a little over a year before the album finally released.

Adelitas Way is an independent band and to get this album made they did a Pledgemusic campaign to help fund and after some time, we have this great straight-up rock & roll album.

The band now consists of only Rick DeJesus on lead vocals, Trevor “Tre” Stafford on drums and Andrew Cushing on bass. Adelitas Way is from Las Vegas and formed back in 2006. The new album, ‘Notorious’, was released in October 2017 by The Vegas Syn/The Fuel Music.
