Spoke too bloody soon didn’t I? Here’s another album I’ve heard and reviewed 😂
Day 20: Dark Days Ahead – North Star Blues
North Star Blues gets off to a good enough start, but it’s the title track where the album truly gets going. With a rifftastic introduction, it brings a powerful blend of energy and downright formidable instrumentation before the vocals even kick in – which somehow manage to inject even more life into the track! One of the highlights of the album for sure.
Dark Days Ahead keep up the pace throughout, with Heroes Of The World and Blood, Sweat & Broken Neck being especially strong inclusions, and Last Day Of Light is a surprising track. A change of atmosphere to the energy and noise of the other songs, it’s a chilled and relaxed acoustic number that sits nicely in the middle of the album and divides it up perfectly. An all-round enjoyable listen.
