Review


Clouds Taste Satanic are back with Volume 3 of The Satanic Singles Series. This time the band are covering the following songs and they’ve picked up some real classics this time.

The Pixies – Cecilia Ann and Rock Music.
Nirvana – Blew

Lets get down to business with Cecilia Ann and Rock Music. This is an excellent cover from CTS and they play another winning blend of Instrumental Doom/Stoner Metal that is quite louder and more aggressive compared to the original with the added bonus of Rock Music being one of the best PIXIES covers I've heard in a long time. The cover is direct and the doom riffs are quite potent and this is a different beast compared to the original.

Blew is another interesting cover from CTS and I expected the guys to cover one of Nirvana’s more well-known hits but this is perhaps the best cover on the The Satanic Singles Series so far. The heavy BASS guitar undeniably makes itself known before the heavy drums and guitars appear and the song moves at it’s own delirious and addictive pace. The song is slightly longer than the original which allows CTS to play a more doomier and down-turned version but you can still tell what the song actually is.

This is another great release from Clouds Taste Satanic. We only have one more release left and as always it will be good to know what songs will the guys be playing next.
