Robert
Plant starts us off with “The May Queen” taken from his October 2017 album
“Carry Fire”
“The
May Queen” is an energetic and captivating song from first note to last, a wall
of acoustic sound with a catchy beat that carries a great voice from the early days
of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant truly delivers a great tune from a stellar new
album.
Temples
follows with “Prisms” taken from their 2014 EP “Shelter Song” - “Prisms” is a Retro
60’s Psychedelic Pop tune that brilliantly pulls the curtain away from the
mysterious prism of the day. TV. A very catchy song by a band that seems to time
shift their musical talents without effort.
Goat
Girl follows with “Crow Cries” a single released in August 2017 that lyrically
points out the hypocrisy of a generation’s belief while the obvious stares everyone
in the face…a short but compact song that expresses the irony of a generation
against the reality of today’s world.
Art
D’Ecco closes the set with “Nobody’s Home” a June 2018 single
With
a Bowie / New Wave-ish aura that crests out of the Gulf Islands of BC Canada. An
excellent song just released on Paper Bag Records that is going to do very well.
And
so, here’s the first set of music from the lighter side of grey, on the
Minstral Show.
SET: 02
From
Springfield Missouri, The Gorlons open
the second set with “Stare into the Sun” taken from their 2014 debut, self
titled album, “The Gorlons” an album that is filled with awe inspiring sounds
that time warps the listener into the future as well as the past at the same
moment...like a tempest in a tea cup, this band delivers.
Next
is “Secret Colours” from Chicago with “It can’t Be Simple” taken from their
2014 album “Positive Distractions”. I loved this tune the moment it dropped due
to its retro 60’s psychedelic Pop sound, a sound I personally can’t seem to get
enough of these days and it’s One of many great tunes by Secret Colours.
Belfast
Ireland’s Sea Pinks follow with “Dream Happening” taken from their September
2014 album “Dreaming Tracks”. Dream happening is a retro 60’s Pop Psych / Surf
track that’s rich in appetizing sounds with a melancholy tinge to catch the
listener from the first note on…great sound and great tune.
Closing
the set is Belgium’s “Black Mirrors” with Funky Queen” a 2016 single
re-released on Napalm Records in 2017. “Funky
Queen” packs a wallop with a pause, build-up and explosion that is guaranteed
to grab your attention and make you scream into music ecstasy! I’m an instant
fan.
And
so, staring into the sun can’t be simple when the dream’s happening with a
funky queen, On the minstral show.
SET: 03
Starting off the final set is
Austin Texas band “Holy Wave” with the title track to their 2014 album “Night
Tripper”. – a song that meshes New Wave / Dark Wave, Garage rock and
psychedelic rock into a Holy Wave of sound…a big thumbs up.
Next, from Paris France is “Future”
with “Skylights” taken from their 2013 EP “Abyss”,
“Skylights” is a driving Dark
Wave / Garage Rock tune that one might find in a movie to drive home the eerie atmosphere
of the empty city streets outside a packed dance club in the late hours before
something major happens. The band delivers a sound that echoes warning and leaves
an impression on the listener.
Following
“Future” from Guadalajara Mexico is, “Has a Shadow” with the title song of
their November 2013 debut album “Sky is Hell Black” a progressive dark wave
tune that tells of a looming oblivion from the night sky…a song that captures
that eerie goose bump feeling one gets just before something bad happens…which
leads perfectly into our final song by “Alice Cooper” with “Fireball” taken
from his 2018 album “Paranormal”. An Album that should see a multi platinum
award for its rock n roll content alone, certainly one of this year’s top
albums.
So,
as the song title implies, A Fireball’s come out of the sky to end it all
including this week’s episode of the minstral show.
