Review:
Hotly
tipped UK Psych/Hard Rock/Doom/Stoner Rockers – Vodun – are not
only a very hard band to describe but on their new single – Minos
Army – they're in a league of their own. Damn this is good and I
mean really good.
Minos
Army is a Soulful Doom/Blues/Stoner Rock crusade of blistering riffs
and soaring vocals. It's a crazy psychedelic affair and 3 minutes is
never enough to listen to Vodun as this band is fucking addictive!!!
- Their music is inspired by a whole range of genres and sounds but
Vodun manage to create their own sound. They call they're sound –
Heavy Blues Psych – which is a great description though it's got a
heavy style of Stoner Metal running through it's veins.
Lead
vocalist – Oya – brings a world-weary presence to the band with
her delicate soulful bluesy vocals. Match them with the blistering
music from Ogoun and Ghede on Drums and Guitars respectively then you
have a psychedelic power trio who have the potential to become one of
the breakout stars in 2016 when they release their hotly tipped debut
album – Possession.
Until
then enjoy Minos Army which is parts Black Sabbath, Jimi Hendrix,
QOTSA and a whole truckload of crazy psychedelic beats. VODUN – you
have my attention. 2016 can't come quickly enough. I want to hear
POSSESSION now. Awesome stuff.
