Spiders – Flash Point 2012

NOW!

Watching Gothenburg-based SPIDERS’ video clip for “Hang Man” (available below) and all those things happening in such a tiny attic, I was stocked; these guys surely know how bluesy Retro Rock should sound, dealing with the perfect portions of Punk and, of course, psychedelia (the Orange amps in the background surely give a hint to the potential listener). So, what is Swedes’ music about leaving aside the enticing wrapping paper (including Ann-Sofie’s GIRLSCHOOL-esque vocal skills/beauty)?

The Scams – Bombs Away 2012

NOW!

Grab a bottle of beer, relax on your couch and spend some time getting rid off any frustrating thoughts; THE SCAMS is here to cast off your inhibitions with an album that smells like a Rock ‘n’ Roll fresh paint. The Sweds perform a style similar to BULLET, meaning they also incorporate AC/DC and KROKUS in their style but this time with some of the post-MOTÖRHEAD volume of THE HELLACOPTERSor Greece’s NIGHTSTALKER. It’s an amalgam of Rock n Roll with Hard Rock and street Metal, to give you an idea.

Clocking to something more than 35 minutes, “Bombs Away” sounds vintage at times and that’s the crucial point of difference between them and e.g. BULLET. The vocals have that ‘old epoch’ echo and the guitars remind me of a more hardrockin’ GRAND MAGUS style also. See, we found some other point of reference as well. The songlist itself is not outstanding; I do not know what kind of songs can surprise us anymore, to be honest. Yet, THE SCAMS do what they got to do in quite a fascinating way and they can put you in the mood quite easily without huge refrains or a monstrous production. They choose to play as fans and deliver their souls to what they’re doing; you can hear this fact in the CD’s grooves.
