What a fantastic stabbing riff
Shades of death are all I see
Skeletons of society
The song is full of too much widdley widdley wank-wanking geetar.
I'm not sure if The Sensational Alex Harvey Band have ever ome under your radar? I was lucky enough to catch the on their last ever concert, headlining the Reading festival in 1977.
Here's a clip of the guitarist, the extremely under-rated Zal Cleminson, showing how a great guitarist plays the guitar properly. I came across it last night for the first time. The clip is from 2006. I saw them at the Point that year, in Cardiff Bay. Enjoy!
I have indeed come across the sensational Alex Harvey band , the drummer went on to become Stickland for Micheal schenker groupQuote:

They sound highly competent. I'm not sure what they're going for though. Some of it sounds like metal, some of it sounds like anthemic, radio rock. It kind of has a 90s feel.Quote:

Haven't heard of Tesseract before, checked out two of their songs on YouTube, sounds like they are influenced by Tool, sort of Prog Metal.
Black Sabbath meets Henry Rollins halfway

I had a listen.....hmm, not quite my scene. As an aside some years ago I worked for a pharmaceutical company based in Crawley. The MD was a man called Smith and his son was Robert who sang for The Cure. One Christmas at the usual company lunch Robert and his band played in the canteen, it was a little before he broke into the big time, and people asked him to stop because they couldn't hear themselves speak. Happy daysQuote:
