Baby Woodrose – Freedom

Baby Woodrose – Freedom

Bad Afro Records – 2016

Rock, Psych, Free, Garage

Rated: *****

We love Baby Woodrose. And have been loving these Danish freaks since their beginning now about fifteen years ago. And when the new single and video Open Doors was released we knew the upcoming album was going to be one sweet ass ride once again. And we were definitely right, cause Freedom is beautiful. The concept and the album, on which they definitely profess their thoughts on the concept as well. In songs like 21st Century Slave and Mind Control Machine it is obvious. But it flourishes on almost every song and definitely makes this album something even more righteous than before and adds without a doubt to the quality. Lorenzo and the boys definitely wanted to profess more than just their love for psychedelic, garage and free rock. They want to tell their truth and we can only listen, nod our heads and agree. But ofcourse there are those of out there who care little for messages and just want to bang out and rock hard. Look no further! Cause Baby Woodrose takes care of all comers and will disappoint nobody! Get hooked and find Freedom!

Rated: ****

With names like Valient Himself, Lorenzo Woodrose and President Fetch the Danish power trio Hjortene sure knows how to capture your attention. And then after you’ve heard their third release you realize there was no need to use these kinds of attention grabbing guest spots; the boys and their music are already incredible as it stands. Perhaps the three tracks, opener 180.000 km featuring Valient, fast paced James Brown with help from President Fetch and psychedelic closer Canada featuring Woodrose are the best efforts on the album. But if so they are closely followed by awesome stoner surf stomper Hold Dig Væk, the eerie, troubling and ever changing Pounding Hammer and lovely Weber who has you lusting after some good BBQ, preferably freshly shot deer meat, within seconds. Grin. Let’s not forget to mention the amazing repetitive builder Igennem Hårde Tider. So you see pal, the album is already right there; at the top of the pile among the great, the fun and the amazing. Check’m out and hear the Danish thunder!
