Rival Sons presents swinging blues-rock that would seem to have been sent over from the '70's via a time-machine. Think: a cross between Led Zeppelin and The Black Crowes with a good dash of gospel, blues and soul added. Nothing new under the sun but the four from Los Angeles get away with it because it dripping class (according to Kindamuzik after their show in Amsterdam last November). Their album ‘Pressure & Time’ was released last year on Earache/EMI and after hitting the spot at Rock Werchter and in Antwerp's Trix, Rival Sons will be arriving in Brussels for the first time on 9 April.
 
'Quite some strong guitar, rock songs that many a band would be jealous of, the required distortion on the left and right guitars, and a well-timed tempo change to let you get your breath back. Singer Ray Buchanan (what a voice!) and his mates swung quite a way. And we liked it!' (HUMO after Rock Werchter 2011)

Incontestablement le meilleur concert rock depuis ... bien longtemps ! En nous plongeant dans les seventies Rival Sons titille le metal, le psyche et meme le blues electrique. La voix de Buchanan plane sans effort, le bassiste martele son rythme avec obsession, le guitariste joue tantot la clarte tantot la confusion tandis que le batteur assene ses coups avec une rigueur de metronome. Il y aura un avant et un apres RS ...a tel point que la comparaison tournera logiquement en leur faveur. On mentionnera aussi la qualite des compositions toutes imprimees du sceau du chanteur (sauf quelques reprises decoiffantes) Les RS ne font pas du rock, ils SONT le rock !

Mijn eerste kennismaking met de band na enkele songs gehoord te hebben via youtube/vrienden en was eerlijk gezegd nogal teleurgesteld. Van de Blues en Soul heb ook ik bitterweinig gehoord, de zanger kon mij verre van bekoren en de gitaarsolo's waren ook niet om over naar huis te schrijven. Positief? De drummer speelde meer dan strak! Ah je moet er fan van zijn zeker. Ookal hoorde ik van vrienden dat dit niet hun beste optreden ooit was. Voorprogramma tenslotte: meer dan geslaagd voor het halve nummer die ik gehoord heb, voorprogramma mocht gerust het hoofdprogramma spelen IMHO.

Ik was blij. Wederom gemerkt hoe ongelooflijk sterk ze op elkaar ingespeeld zijn met hun smerige ruige rockmuziek. Mogelijks een van de beste live groepen van het moment voor mij!

Gospel ? Blues ? Soul ? Bluesrock ? Niks gehoord van dit alles,wel een loeiende gitaar,goede zang maar weinig samengang,ieder deed zijn ding zoals er 13 in een dozijn zijn.Slechte keuze of te oud voor dit ?Wie zal het zeggen ,de echte fans waarschijnlijk.
