Birth of Joy – Prisoner

Birth of Joy – Prisoner
Suburban – 2014
Rock, Psych, Seventies
Rated: ****

 

The past years the Dutch formation Birth of Joy has been doing well, especially across the border. But with their new album Prisoner we are sure to see them gathering the masses in their home country as well. Cause with the purring sounds of a maniac Hammond, ruthless drum pounding and a massive guitar sound there is no escaping their loud and confident posture. Intense heavy rock with psychedelic influences straight from the sixties and seventies and with almost radioactively glowing blues roots. Add to this an expert and instinctive navigation between a raw garage sound and soulful inspired heaviness and one can only testify to a steaming hot summer lurking just around the corner. Did you dig the amazing Shaking Godspeed? Did you love the luscious DeWolff? Check out Birth Of Joy; cause they bring their flaming weight from the golden era of music with an emotional and intense heat and a truckload of steroids. Birth of Joy is bringing the sun; and it’s as hot as molten lava!
