Shock (Tesla album)

 Shock is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Tesla. Produced and co-written by Phil Collen, the work was released on 8 March 2019 via UMe. and recorded at J Street Recorders.

Background
In January 2019, the ensemble released the title track for the album. Shock is also the final album to feature drummer Troy Luccketta. The following month, the group published "California Summer Song".

Critical reception
Robert Rheubottom of AXS stated that "The song 'Shock' opens with an insistent retro-80s sounding backbeat, supplied by drummer Troy Luccketta. Bassist Brian Wheat and guitarist Frank Hannon climb aboard to set up the ominous groove for the song's first verse as lead vocalist Jeff Keith sings, “Clock is ticking I feel it/Ain't no stopping it now.”"

Lauryn Schaffner of Loudwire said that ""Taste Like" is a cheerful, gritty rock song that stays true to the band's bluesy, '70s-inspired roots".
