Death Alley – Superbia

Death Alley – Superbia

Century Media – 2018

Rock, Hard, Punk, Proto, Psych

Rated: *****

We never mentioned the damn righteous Black Magick Boogieland album released by Death Alley in 2015. We did ofcourse mention that awesome live album recorded at Roadburn released last year. It summoned the spirit of The Devils Blood and some of that is still there on the new album Superbia. Which is logical ofcourse, since Oeds Beydals, is still the main axe-slinger. But there is also new blood in the form of drummer Uno Bruniosson (In Solitude/Grave Pleasures) and guitar player Sander Bus (The Blues Junkies). Together with vocalist Douwe Truijens they still bring us grade A psychedelic and proto punk hardrock that is raw and gritty and grinds its way into your soul. No, I said it wrong, they now bring us that tasty good stuff that sounds pure and ancient. And with much more progressive touches and seventies explorations. This is no simple Black Magick Boogieland follow-up, this is taking the Death Alley sound to much higher dimension, mysterious and wild! Awesome and impressive indeed! The groove will give you goosebumps and the songs will become your new soundtrack to every superb night in the gutter!
