What are some qualities that led to Sound City receiving a positive critical reaction ?
Phil Freeman from Allmusic gave the album a positive review , saying , " What separates Asking Alexandria from most of their peers is an awareness of classic rock & roll dynamics – some of the riffs they write are straightforward updates of Guns N ' Roses or Skid Row ( two of whose songs they covered on their Life Gone Wild EP ) , and they 're as interested in getting listeners singing along as moshing .
