#Rge cactus album full#

вЂIn Concert With The MirrorвЂ™ starts like a regular Attica Rage number. In fact, itвЂ™s just like a real вЂAftershowвЂ™ party. вЂAftershowвЂ™ begins with a browsing bass and crunchy chords вЂ“ but it soon relies on belching, marauding and a roaring riot of noise to percolate the excitement up into a frenzy. What we did not know, until the вЂAftershowвЂ™ track is that this whisky drinking, grease stained demonic Aslan also has a voice that could rival вЂњOzzyвЂќ.

This track is not going to win any awards for innovation and experimentation вЂ“ but it is full of fast-fingering bass lines, squelching guitars, tempestuous drums and guiltless vocals. The cosy chorus will have the crowds clapping and yelling along at live shows. An intuitive riff makes us feel comfortable. This song will put a cloud of hornets up your sporran. A surprisingly grizzled riff chugs along manfully. вЂKiller CarouselвЂ™ is a slice of purely increasing heaviness. Along the way, their flame-haired вЂLegolasвЂ™ looking guitarist ( Stevie Bell) plays some piping hot guitar вЂ“ he bends the air with sheer intensity. Lyrically, they sometimes take on a syllable too much, but this just shows their enthusiasm and desire to describe the reasoning behind this song вЂ“ riding an iron horse back to loving arms. When you fully open up вЂLong Ride HomeвЂ™ you can feel the wind in your hair and the engine pulse between your legs.

As you would expect, the lead guitar bubbles and pipes like a banshee rising. A fragrant beast this one вЂ“ with waffles of keyboard, and some zestful backing vocals. вЂClose ShaveвЂ™ reminds us so much of BLS we actually had to check the label to ensure it was still Attica. This song lugs out thick buffalo hides of pure power вЂ“ with the darkest mud buckets of bass you have ever witnessed. And the whole track fizzes like a primed powder keg. Heavy bass notes mulch down and rot beneath the melody. вЂFlight 180вЂ™ runs around the stage grimacing. And those guitars, so choppy at the end, will reduce you to a fruity pulp. The chorus: вЂњI will be here waitingвЂ¦We are forever вЂ¦WeвЂ™ll see it throughвЂ¦.вЂќ will speak to the soul of every long-haired greaser out there. With heartfelt lyrics and a swooning pace. With beaming guitars and marmalade-sticky riffs. This is highly polished, milled-leather biker rock.

So when вЂBeyond ForeverвЂ™ cracks in like a loose whip, you will feel your heart gladdened. And this is gonna be one hellishly addictive ride. This follows the departure of вЂBig CвЂ™ (who was an integral part of the original set up: He is credited with producing the first album вЂRuin NationвЂ™.) New bassist Colin Wilson is firmly embedded into the structure of the band.ДЄfter a sumptuous introduction track вЂ“ вЂFrom Dusk till DawnвЂ™ вЂ“ we instantly realise that the boys are going to be travelling in a вЂBlack Label SocietyвЂ™ direction. But the careful development of Attic Rage is no accident. Where вЂRoad DogвЂ™ вЂ“ the last album вЂ“ was all sump-oil and cartilage, new album вЂ88 MPHвЂ™ is quite a departure. Coatbridge guitarist Stephen Bell joined in 2007 and the line-up is completed by bassist Colin Wilson from Bellshill, who joined in January 2012. ATTICA RAGE was formed by Ayrshire brothers, singer/guitarist Jonny Parr and drummer Richie Rage in Glasgow, Scotland in 2003.
