Grusom

[Life in may]

​

Grusom - датская команда, образованная в конце 2013-го. В следующем году парни выпускают 3-ех песенное демо и уже через месяц подписывают контракт с немецким лейблом Kozmikartifactz Records. Дебютный альбом вышел в июле 2015-го. По музыке имеем качественный ретро-хард с элементами психоделии и вокалом похожим на Кори Тэйлора (хотя возможно только мне так показалось).

Vocal: Niclaj Hoffmann
Organ: Peter Pørtner
Guitar: Thomas Ulrik
Guitar: Dennis Warburg
Bass: Søren Olesen
Drums: Jakob Kaae

Grusom - Grusom (2015)

[HIDE]Cкачать[/HIDE]​

Danish rockers Grusom have crafted an impressively dark debut for German record label Kozmik Artifactz. There’s a sinister Hammer Horror/satanic biker vibe underlying the album’s 9 tracks, providing Grusom a gloomy backdrop to present their fog-enshrouded blues-rock tales of creeping evil, Gothic horror and murder. While they may draw comparisons to the current scene of occult rockers with a similar ‘70s-inspired sound, they don’t particularly sound like any one of their peers.

Fans of Blood Ceremony, Graveyard, Danzig, The Doors and Steppenwolf will find common ground here. The album begins with “First Sermon”, a leslie-drenched instrumental organ prelude that showcases the brooding and densely melodic lead organ (and later, piano) of Peter Pørtner. From there on in, the tasteful dual guitars of Dennis Warburg and Thomas Ulrik expertly trade off melody and rhythm with Pørtner, never competing for space in the arrangement. Nicolaj Hoffman Jul’s impassioned and powerful vocals are a highlight throughout the record; he has a quality in his voice that breaks up nicely when he pushes it in the heavier moments, and every phrase is filled with haunted emotion.
