Electric Mother – II

 

 

Electric Mother – II
Self released – 2021
Rock, Hard, Stoner, Grunge, Metal
Rated: ****

I’ve never had the honor to visit the Orkney Islands in Scotland, even though Highland Park was one of my early whisky favorites and I have always had a terrible lust to visit Hollandstoun and the rest of the islands. And now there is another reason for a big trip north; cause the five-piece Electric Mother hails from those magnificent islands! And the quintet has just self-released their sophomore album II on both vinyl and cd and give us a tasty combination of nineties alternative metal, grunge, stoner and hardrock. It’s got groove, it’s got heart and it’s got soul! Low slung, low punk, bass heavy, massive hooks and damn fine guitar colors! Just listen to a track like Treacherous with those marauding guitars and that almost eighties aura. That certain classic quality is ever present and gives it that special touch; as if you’re listening to something that you simply can’t live without. It will make you relive certain musical memories and envision new melodious fantasies! And it’s got nine of these marvelous tracks! Electric Mother’s II is one hell of an eclectic and majestic record!
