Circus, may I call you "
CC"?
I love that nickname, but can see where one wouldn't.
Write your impressions of these seemingly endless new albums you're listening to (and buying... I remember...) I can't even read the name of that last one!
Yes, you can and yes, I will. That last one was Virgin Steele's
Life Among The Ruins (CD), they're more in the vein of Judas Priest/Iron Maiden and were featured on a few 80s horror movie soundtracks.
I'm giving Warrior Soul's
Drugs God & The New Republic (1991) yet another whirl. Had to drown out the neighbour's dog, so I was laid in bed at about 2am with this on.
I've said it once before, and I'll say it again. Warrior Soul are the best band you've never heard. They pre-empted the grunge/alternative movement without ever being part of it. They are punk, rock n' roll, stoner/funk/political. Every song is played with such conviction that it transports you to another place entirely. This band can't be classified, they blow the likes of Nirvana, Guns N' Roses, U2 and RATM off the planet and if you're right-wing then they hate you.
