royal blood

a sonic attack with an impact that 2 people should never be able to achieve alone, Royal Blood is a mixture of anguished vocals, ferocious drumming & bass that provides intricate detail as well as a rumble of rhythm.

the duo are the result of a lineage that stretches from present day heroes Queens of the Stone Age to the influential Led Zeppelin & all the way back to early blues pioneers & to be honest, the jack white/white stripes comparisons are pretty unavoidable. vocalist/bassist Mike Kerr & drummer Ben Thatcher have honed an insanely catchy, pristine blues-garage-rock sound that's so impressive, it's almost impossible to believe this is their debut. "Heavy on distortion & stadium-sized rolling riffs, there's a hugeness to their sound that’s remarkable when you consider that the duo refuse to resort to overdubs or studio trickery to create their widescreen sonic maelstroms" - dis.
