Formed in 2003, Cocked and Loaded have wowed clubs with their catchy sweaty brand of bar rock, reminiscent of the Stones, The Romantics, Iggy Pop, and AC/DC. Don't look for any deep meaning here. Just knock back some Jagermeister and rock the fuck out, otherwise, you'll get a pool cue up the back of your head and a knee to the groin. This ain't music for chardonnay sipping, politically correct, ponytailed pussyboys. This is real rock for real men -- men who eat meat, spit, wear mechanics' overalls, and baseball caps, and have tattoos. I might just have to trade my chardonnay in for a quart of PBR! Yow! - The Noise - Boston
This sweaty rock outfit plays the kind of three-chord power rock that sounds like a less informed Henry Rollins fronting an AC/DC cover band. Wielding this kind of firepower, the Massachusetts-based quintet Cocked N' Loaded throw abandon out the window and stick to its hard rock artillery, playing three tracks of dirty blues and smarmy rawk with the imminence of a bad boy band playing the Sunset Strip circuit. Infectious choruses and no nonsense riffs with the attitude to match, Cocked N' Loaded have come to play music, cause chaos, and drink heavily, and not in that order. - Tangerine Magazine
