ALBUM REVIEW: Kadavar - "Rough Times"

By: Richard Maw

Album Type: Full Length
Date Released: 29/09/2017
Label: Nuclear Blast


The sound off the album is positively low-fi, the title track a noisy and lurching beast and “Into The Wormhole” sounds like a slowed down record being played through a torn speaker. There are sojourns into more proggy territory with “The Lost Child”, but for me it is when the band utilise the most Neanderthal sounds that they are most effective.  The verdict? A lot better than their first two albums and an interesting, engaging listen.


“Rough Times“CD//DD//LP track listing:

1. Rough Times (3:38)
 2. Into The Wormehole (4:17)
3. Skeleton Blues (4:24)
4. Die Baby Die (4:18)
5. Vampires (4:48)
6. Tribulation Nation (5:04)
7. Words Of Evil (3:37)
8. The Lost Child (5:52)
9. You Found The Best in Me (4:58)
10. A L'Ombre Du Temps (3:57)

The Review:

Kadavar are Berlin's premier 70's retro rock revivalists and I have followed their career somewhat loosely since their 2013 “Abra Kadavar” album which featured a very seventies production in terms of instrument placement and a small dose of Sabbath to go with their Deep Purple, Budgie, Coven, Blue Cheer, Zeppelin et. al. references. Not doom, for sure, but not only classic rock... Since then, of course, a myriad of bands have come to the fore who deal in similar retro-nostalgia (Gentleman's Pistols are still the best outfit with a retro leaning).

With “Rough Times”, I have missed out on one of the band's albums so I don't know quite how this fits into their continuum but I do know that this is much rougher than the first two records- as the title may obliquely suggest. This is closer to the MC5 and The Stooges in terms of sound and aggression than it is to Budgie. The sounds is positively low-fi, the title track a noisy and lurching beast. “Into The Wormhole” sounds like a slowed down record being played through a torn speaker.

The rest of the record is just as gnarly- “Skeleton Blues” is a primal groove of distorted bass and guitar with reverb drenched vocals. The lyrics capture the Zeitgeist of fake news and confusion in prescient terms. As such, then, for a retro band Kadavar are remarkably up to date in themes and concerns- of the ten tracks, all sound like they could have been recorded between 1968 and 1975, but most of the lyrics could only come from the here and now- an odd combination, but one that makes their sound more alluring, at least for me.

Whether it be the lost innocence and cynicism of “Vampires”, the political sounding “Tribulation Nation” or even the straight rocker “Words of Evil” with its metaphors, all the songs are bang up to date: or could apply to any era of trouble and strife you could name. There are sojourns into more proggy territory with “The Lost Child”, but for me it is when the band utilise the most Neanderthal  sounds that they are most effective. There is melody aplenty in “You Found The Best In Me” and it features as the middle track in the closing triumvirate where the band spread their wings beyond the Berlin/Detroit axis and venture into more unusual sounds and styles. The final statement of “A L'Ombre Du Temps” is again current, retro and a departure for the band.

The verdict? A lot better than their first two albums and an interesting, engaging listen.

EXCLUSIVE TRAILER: KADAVAR | Lupus discusses how Witch's self-titled album influenced him



Unless you have been living under a rock or in hibernation for the last seven years, there really is no excuse for you to have missed Berlin based rock overlords Kadavar rising ascendency.  With 3 full lengths under there belts and having notch up thousands of air miles during a hectic touring cycle, this Germanic powerhouse are set to do all again, with the impending release of their fourth record “Rough Times” via metal heavyweight Nuclear Blast   on 29 September 2017.

While Kadavar are certainly not averse to sounding like Aston’s finest, Black Sabbath, on their third album “Berlin” they began to cast their net further into the seas of classic rock incorporating fizzy Stooges style riffs, groove reminiscent of The Who drenched in fuzz and the odd smattering of Hendrix/Cream flavour into proceedings and packed killer chorus’s into the mix which ensured the album was lodged in your brain for weeks.

Kadavar have always seemed to avoid the pitfalls of slavishly recreating the sound of rock legends of yesteryear. Instead they have taken their obvious influences and reassembled them in an exciting new configuration. The sheer exuberance and energy of their delivery, combined with masterful song writing skill, sounds completely vital whilst being unashamedly in thrall to the past. On new album “Rough Times” Kadavar offer yet another example of why they  should be held in the same esteem as their  heroes and be immortalised as masters of their craft by future generations.

Today ahead of the album’s official release on Friday, we offer you another trailer.  Watch below as Lupus discusses how Witch's self-titled album influenced him

Rough Times” will be released on September 29 via Nuclear Blast qnd you can order a copy: here  UK fans can catch Kadavar live:

30.09. London - The Dome, UK

ALBUM REVIEW: The Judge - "The Judge"

By: Theron Moore

Album Type: Full Length
Date Released: 22/07/2016
Label: Ripple Music


This one is crazy good, and crazy Sabbath inspired too. Give this band a listen, you’ll dig it.

“The Judge” CD//DD//LP track listing:

1). The Witcher
2). Heepster
3). Evil Woman
4). Tartarus
5). Mivub’ and Groovin’
6). Planet Doom
7). Suite of Jam
8). Desire
9). Rock Kickin’ Blues

The Review:

You walk a fine line when you play the retro rock game.  Kadavar is a band that’s pulled it off seemlessly.  Radio Moscow too.  Wolfmother not so.  Kadavar’s music is truly music out of time, you wanna talk being born too late?  Kadavar is.  Radio Moscow is.  But if you cross that line you wind up in imitation land.  Just another sludge rock wannabe.  The previously mentioned Wolfmother occupy this no man’s land.  The Judge, I’m happy to say, has pulled off a real gem here with their self-titled record. 

This one is crazy good, and crazy Sabbath inspired too.  Dylan Jarrett’s guitar playing on “The Judge” is so close to Tony Iommi it’ll mess with your head on this record.  He’s got the technique and sound down to near perfection.  There’s gonna be a ton of comparisons to Sab but the question at the end of the day, is, did The Judge pull it off?  Hell yeah.  And then some.

The Witcher” opens the record with a spot on take of early era Sabbath.  It’s crazy how close to Sabbath this is, really makes you do a double take.  But the song works as a whole.  The guitar is so close to Tony Iommi’s sound it’s insane, the vocals sound so much like Ozzy, its nuts, but, you can’t stop listening to it.  It has an ebb and flow to it that works, though. 

Heepster” keeps the fab Sab vibe moving forward but the vocals are starting to take shape.  I can hear less Ozzy and more Tyler Swope, that band’s singer, but the Oz man inspiration still flows through. 

Two things stand out about third song “Evil Woman.”  Tyler Swope’s vocals are sheer velvet, nothing but heavy cream that in turn allows Jarrett’s guitar playing to get showcased here.  Swope has a nice, bluesy aspect to his voice that carries this song. 

Tartarus” finds me getting into the groove of the band as a whole.  Only because Swope and Jarrett are as good as they are, you tend to focus on those two and not the whole band but “Tartarus” brings The Judge into full perspective.

I won’t go through every song but you get the idea.  “The Judge” as a whole works for me.  It’s not Sabbath rehash, it’s four guys who know how to handle this type of sound and groove, they craft it, they shape it, in the end, they made this sound entirely their own.  Give this band a listen, you’ll dig it.

Kadavar - "Berlin" (Album Review)

By: Charlie Butler

Album Type: Full-Length
Date Released: 21/08/2015
Label: Nuclear Blast Records



Kadavar have avoided the pitfalls of slavishly recreating the sound of rock legends of yesteryear. Instead they have taken their obvious influences and reassembled them in an exciting new configuration. The sheer exuberance and energy of their delivery, combined with masterful songwriting skill, sounds completely vital whilst being unashamedly in thrall to the past.

Berlin” CD//DD//LP track listing:

1. Lord Of The Sky 4:27
2. Last Living Dinosaur 4:05
3. Thousand Miles Away From Home 4:53
4. Filthy Illusion 3:45
5. Pale Blue Eyes 3:28
6. Stolen Dreams 3:57

8. Spanish Wild Rose 4:30
9. See The World With Your Own Eyes 4:07
10. Circles In My Mind 3:47
11. Into The Night 4:30
12. Reich Der Träume (bonus track) 6:39

Kadavar is:

Christoph “Lupus” Lindemann | vocals, guitars
Simon “Dragon” Bouteloup | bass
Christoph “Tiger” Bartelt | drums

The Review:

I’d never heard a note of Kadavar before my first spin of “Berlin”. This is the Berlin power trio’s third LP and sees them in possession of a massive following earned via their retro 70S hard/psychedelic rock stylings. I was going into this expecting some serious Sabbath/Purple worship in the vein of Witchcraft and Graveyard, but what I found was something a little bit different. While Kadavar are certainly not averse to sounding like Aston’s finest, particularly on the suitably monstrous “Last Living Dinosaur”, it appears they’ve cast their net further into the seas of classic rock than the standard doom touchstones.

Lord of the Sky” kicks the album off with a fizzy Stooges style riff before settling into a groove reminiscent of The Who drenched in fuzz. The band mine this furrow further to great effect on “Filthy Illusion” and “See The World With Your Own Eyes” while elsewhere things take a more psychedelic turn. “The Old Man” adds a Hendrix/Cream flavour to proceedings and packs a killer chorus which will be lodged in your brain for weeks to come. “Spanish Wild Rose” sees the band slow down and space out with some tasty lead guitar and vocal echo. “Into the Night” closes the record in fine style, switching from fist pumping heavy metal to a swooping effects laden climax which brings a welcome injection of prog grandeur.

Make sure you get a copy of “Berlin” featuring bonus track “Reich Der Traume”. A cover of an obscure Nico track, it offers a stark contrast to the rest of the album featuring an array of synths and minimal drums. Here the band sound almost contemporary, conjuring up a strange and effective mix of Yes, Kraftwerk and even modern weirdoes Animal Collective. It will be interesting to see if this is a sign of things to come in the future.

Kadavar have avoided the pitfalls of slavishly recreating the sound of rock legends of yesteryear. Instead they have taken their obvious influences and reassembled them in an exciting new configuration. The sheer exuberance and energy of their delivery, combined with masterful songwriting skill, sounds completely vital whilst being unashamedly in thrall to the past. “Berlin” is a killer album that may help them to attain the immortality of their heroes in the eyes of future generations.

All Them Witches - “Dying Surfer Meets His Maker” (Album Review)

By: Victor Van Ommen

Album Type: Full Length
Date Released: 30/10/2015
Label: New West Records



Groovy and slow like the rocking back and forth of a fishing boat on a quiet lake seems to be the state of mind, but it’s not a lazy album. The free falling jams are certainly laid back and the songs are no different, such as the case with “Open Passageways,” a prime cut that tells a bizarre story while being guided by a wonderful string section that takes this song to a whole new level.


“Dying Surfer Meets His Maker” CD//DD//LP track listing:

1). Call Me Star
2). El Centro
3). Dirt Preachers
4). This Is Where It Falls Apart
5). Mellowing
6). Open Passageways
7). Instrumental 2 (Welcome To The Caveman Future)
8). Talisman
9). Blood and Sand / Milk and Endless Waters


All The Witches is:

Charles Michael Parks, Jr. | vocals/bass
Ben McLeod | guitar
Allan Van Cleave | keys
Robby Staebler | drums

The Review:

Nashville bred; anything-goes rockers All Them Witches will release their New West Records debut titled “Dying Surfer Meets His Maker” on Friday, October 30th. It is not sludgy, far from doomy, and the fuzz on it doesn’t remind of muscle cars or open roads. But what this album isn’t doesn’t detract from the fact that All Them Witches have a unique way of providing a solid lesson in what heavy is by way of their instrumentation and delivery on these gentle, melancholic psychedelta blues songs.

The common thread in “Dying Surfer Meets His Maker” is how the electric guitars twist through the clear, steel-stringed acoustic guitars. As far as drums and bass are concerned, let alone vocals, these dip in and out through the album’s run time, either pushing or accentuating the songs in such a way that they blend into each other, giving “Dying Surfer Meets His Maker” that album feel. “Call Me Star” opens the 45 minute run time with a bouncy picking of acoustic guitars which are quickly joined by a cool drum beat fed by feel rather than a metronome, representing the cool flow of what’s to come. But before things get too cozy, All Them Witches dive into a pulsating kraut rock jam followed by “Dirt Preachers,” which is as close as the album gets to the band’s prior output. Things settle down into swampy psychedelta rock from this point on, deeply planting its roots into the soil that Parks, Mcleod, Van Cleave, and Staeblet keep moist with their fluid jams. All Them Witches truly are nestled in the bosom of creation.

By the time the opening three tracks have passed and the echoing whispers in “This is Where it All Falls Apart” float above the bluesy Fender six string, All Them Witches branch out from their rockin’ past into a new sound that is difficult to pin down. Though equal parts heavy 70s, blues, and psychedelic, there’s no band that springs to mind as a comparison for what these guys do. Groovy and slow like the rocking back and forth of a fishing boat on a quiet lake seems to be the state of mind, but it’s not a lazy album. The free falling jams are certainly laid back and the songs are no different, such as the case with “Open Passageways,” a prime cut that tells a bizarre story while being guided by a wonderful string section that takes this song to a whole new level. Its beat is infectious and stands out as one of the album’s strongest moments, begging to be played over and over. “Talisman” is another standout, and though the sing-talking keeps the general mood mellow, it exudes a sure-footed confidence which is an essential ingredient for the album’s success. This confidence will no doubt be translated well into a live setting, convincing the riff-hungry crowds that their take on the genre is just as delicious as their peers, as All Them Witches hit the road with Kadavar and The Sword.

If any of this speaks to you then please do yourself a favor and cancel your plans for Friday. Head out to the record store and pick this album up. A bottle of red wine will enhance the experience but if that’s not your thing, fear not, this album stands strong on its own. Dim the lights, turn on the fireplace, and give the volume knob an extra nudge. All Them Witches have made something very unique and special with “Dying Surfer Meets His Maker,” and I’d like to strongly recommend that you get down with their trip.

Semicasual - 'Ivory' EP (Review)

By: Victor Van Ommen

Album Type: EP
Date Released: 21/08/2015
Label: Independent



Emotion permeates the music while the genuine jump and jive of rock n’ roll push these songs forward. What makes this even better is that Semicasual are kind of heavy, too.

‘Ivory’ CD//DD track listing:

1). Personal Womb
2). Tusks
3). Crossed The Line
4). Swamp Funk

Semicasual is:

Marc Bennetts | Vocals, guitars
Stephen Cevallos | Bass
Ben Haggard | Guitars, Hammond organ
Mitch Martin| Drums

The Review:

The blues. Mmm. Be it from Chicago, Texas, or in the case of Semicasual, South Carolina, its good. Semicasual’s stories of broken hearts played to the tune of a slide guitar makes for a fitting soundtrack for a night on the town. Emotion permeates the music while the genuine jump and jive of rock n’ roll push these songs forward.

There’s someone tickling the keys in “Tusks”, the drumming pounds away from start to finish, and the fun being had with the slide in “Crossed the Line” is felt all the way down to the bone. What makes this even better is that Semicasual are kind of heavy, too. All this is topped off with a Robert Cray reference, so go ahead and give them an extra point for that. A good whisky lifts the flavor of these tunes, so please go grab a glass and turn yourself on to some Semicasual

Interview with Kadavar



Hidden, tucked away somewhere in the maze-like structure of Manchester’s Deaf Institute, a gig venue, bar and restaurant which itself nestles amongst the hustle and bustle of the city centre, I take a seat next to Tiger. Sat down, the Kadavar drummer’s towering presence is almost non-existent; he is in a tranquil mind-set, beer in hand, the Jekyll to the animalistic Hyde he would later become on-stage. To the other side of me sits Wolf Lindemann, the band’s charismatic frontman who is in equally as cheery spirits. Having released their second album, Abra Kadavar in May to widespread acclaim, this is a band in a good place. Speaking to Sludgelord, the band gives the lowdown on the album that has brought them to Manchester:        

Tiger: “I would say it’s a straight rock n’ roll record without too much on it.”
Wolf: “It’s just three people in a room together, not many overdubs. We work together and we have our ideas but there’s no line we are following with our sound, it just happens. If we like the song, we play the song.”

With Nuclear Blast behind them on the new record, they are reaping the benefits of being supported by a big label, something which didn’t happen with their self-titled debut. It is a critical step on this band’s ascent.

Tiger: “The label we had before [Teepee Records], on a personal level did the same did work but now there’s so many people behind us, not just in Germany but worldwide. It’s such a big company and you can feel that, the record is out in more countries than the first record. That hardly had any promotion but it was a lot better this time around.”

Wolf: “That’s why we signed to Nuclear Blast, to get the worldwide promotion. We want to tour worldwide but that wasn’t possible with our old label because it was just one guy in Germany. We’ve just come back from the States and there are a lot of people there who know about us.”




 


In an age where iTunes and digital music sales dominate the industry, Kadavar are one of a few bands who are bucking that trend, with vinyl sales of their records outstripping any other format


Wolf: “I think our music works better on vinyl than it does on iTunes or CD. It’s all recorded analogue so it has an older, more vintage sound and I think people know that. People who like that kind of music will already be listening to it on vinyl and there’s kind of a vinyl revival anyway. When we released our first album it was only available on vinyl for the first 5-6 months.”

Tiger: “When we first started buying albums it was just in that transition where CDs got popular. My mum had a big record collection then bought a CD player and started buying CDs so it looked like vinyl would vanish. Then, when we teenagers in the late nineties and we started going to punk rock shows and stuff like that we noticed that people were still selling vinyl and it was cool in some way, so we got our own record player again. It was different listening to vinyl in a way because you listen to whole sides at a time and relax while you listen to it and it makes it more enjoyable.”

Wolf: “You can’t put an mp3 on your shelf at home. We know people want mp3s and CDs and that’s fine but we’re really focused on how it sounds on vinyl.”

In November last year, Kadavar released a split EP with French psychedelic band Aqua Nebula Oscillator, something which Wolf was very eager to do. 

Wolf: “Our friend Shazzula, who used to be the singer of Aqua Nebula played the Theremin Purple Sage off the first album. They were my favourite psychedelic band because they were so dark and evil and still had this Hawkwind style so I always wanted them to come and play Germany but they were too lazy. So I set up a tour for our first album and brought them over to play five shows with us in Germany. We had fun. At the end of it I said ‘this shouldn’t be the last thing we do together’ so we met again in our studio in Berlin in August last year and recorded the album together.

“Simon, our new bass player actually played for Aqua Nebula, he left the band, moved to Berlin and joined us earlier this year.”  
 

With the tour slowly drawing to its conclusion, the band are left to look ahead to what’s next.


Tiger: “By the end of it all we’ll have been on tour for 200 days and played around 160 shows so we need a break first of all [laughs]. We need time to relax and come down from that before we tour again next year. We’ll try to find some time to write in the spring, then in the summer while we play all the festivals, when we only play on weekends we get spend time in the studio in the week. We try to record as soon as we can but we have to find time because we want to tour as much as possible next year as well.

“On tours we collect lots of ideas, I’ll record them on my computer or something like that, and then after the tour we go to the studio and work it out and see how all these ideas fit together.”  

However, despite having two solid rock n’ roll albums to their name, their beards are one of the main talking points in interviews.

Tiger: “We get asked all the time and it’s boring; there’s no story, it’s just growing. We’d shave it every day if we wanted to, there’s nothing else to it, and it’s just a beard [laughs].”
