These are a few guys from Cast Iron Hike & Converge rippin’ out some heavy rock damage. Strongly reminiscent of Thin Lizzy, 25 Suaves, Left For Dead, and a little bit of Danzig (minus the silly posturing). Tightly played, big & riffy, lots of destructive fun.
(((((1))))) Classic rawk meets modern heavy raucous. 25 Suaves sword fighting with Thin Lizzy.
((((2)))) Slow, bassy attacking & snarling. More ‘Lizzy/’Maiden twin harmonies.
((((3))))) Slow then more venomous heavy doom riding
((((4))))) Pounding, forceful, headbanging brilliance. Catchy riffing & wailing guitars.
(((5))) 100% FCC VIOLATION-DON’T PLAY!!!
((((6)))) Some weird twist (of cain?) of Danzig and Thin Lizzy. Incredible simulation!
(((7))) Blurry vocals, walls of battering low-end. Too mixed up to be all that memorable.
(CAREFUL FCC at very end: “SO FUCK IT!”)
(((((8)))) Fast, straight-ahead Converge-y hardcore by way of Motorhead. Killer!
(((9))) Weird, heavy boogie. Can’t make heads or tails of it.
(((10))) Slow, minimal blues-rock, grows into a rather nice spate of heaviness.
((((11)))) Pummelling, bashing with simple but varied attack/tempo.
((((12))))) Big on early 90’s noise rock mixed with the Converge “charging bull on the loose” feeling.
((((13)))) Slow, gritty & doomy.
