Their new album TIME TUNNEL is done in very much the same Rock and Roll
dance band style they are known for, now often called GARAGE ROCK, but little
different really from what the Beatles - Kinks - and Who were doing at exactly
the same time then, and now again largely with The Foo Fighters and The Fifth Estate. This is so much so that SHEL TALMY, who originally produced The Kinks, The Who, Chad and Jeremy, Pentangle, Jimmy Page and David Bowie, has become the
Executive Producer for The Fifth Estate.
See Wikipedia.org Rock Music - for an understanding of
Garage Rock and it's revival today! Plus it's broadening appeal
throughout the entire music digging, grooving, loving universe!
Probably the best known proponent of Garage Rock today is
Dave Grohl and his FOO FIGHTERS who are up for 6 Grammies this year!
Much thanks to Joe LaPorta and the crew at The Lodge NYC who mastered
both The 5E's TIME TUNNEL album and WASTING LIGHT for the FOOs.
We can't thank Shel Talmy enough who put a true rock and roll sound on this
album - the way rock and roll was meant to sound - and to Joe LaPorta at The Lodge
who brought all that into the full force and brilliance which only todays tech
and mastering techniques can achieve, although mostly analogue oddly enough.
A truly tremendous blend of then and now in an album called TIME TUNNEL!!!
PERFECT !!!!

NEW album TIME TUNNEL latest review--

5.0 out of 5 stars
Leicester Bangs Review (2012):,
The Fifth Estate are undoubtedly best known for their 1967 hit "Ding-Dong!
The Witch Is Dead", which they recorded in five different languages
split to pursue solo projects, but sporadically reform for gigs and
Their latest record "Time Tunnel" has been co-produced and mixed by
legendary knob-turner Shel Talmy (David Bowie, The Who's "My Generation",
The Kinks, etc.) and he's performed a sterling job keeping the band's garage
credentials intact. Often groups of a certain vintage feel the need to smooth away
the rough edges, let the studio gadgetry take the strain, and flatten their fervor.
Not so with The Fifth Estate, as "Time Tunnel" is as raw and immediate as any recording made by any Nuggets era group, and is all the more refreshing
for its urgent, unfussy delivery.
Standout tracks come thick and fast: the title track gets the ball rolling with
Rick Engler and Bob Klein supplying choppy guitar chords and the
rhythm section of Doug Ferrara (bass) and Ken Evans (drums) holding
down the beat - we truly are taken back in time as the quartet revisit 1966,
late `70s new wave, but regrets nothing and "Crazy Little Thing" is the
sort of maximum R&B that's been wowing live audiences since the Stones
waded ashore at Eel Pie Island.
Well worth tracking down, whether you're looking to revisit a particularly
fun part of your youth, or a mere whippersnapper eager to find out what
