In
search of some hard-hitting, straight-up Aussie
rock?….Yeah? Well look no further than Melbourne
four-piece Warped, the crusaders of rock revival.
Their latest release 'This is the Sound (Right Now)'
is an energizing and refreshing track, sure to greater
expose their growing face in the Oz rock scene.
Rock
'n' roll is a debatably dead genre. Releases with
the same edge as Mark of Cain and early Shihad and
Grinspoon, are all long since extinct. Imitation
"rock" bands continue to plague the scene with their
soft-core attempts at producing "rock".
This
is the simple reason why captivated Australian audiences
have welcomed Warped and their refreshing arrival
onto the Australian music scene.
Warped
lay down a generous six-track EP on 'This is the
Sound (Right Now)' and is sure to impress fans both
new and old. This single also gives great insight
into the band itself, with some heart-felt goodbyes
to their supporting 'Punters Club' and big hellos
to fellow rockers Dern Rutledge in track two. 'This
is the Sound (Right Now) is a fine example of the
guys live talent, coughing up a pretty impressive
performance on tracks 2-6.
This
ballzy oz rock release is sure to revive die-hard
rock fans, both gasping and spluttering for rejuvenation.
The good news is it's still early days for this
band. Warped have defiantly shown huge potential
in this release to fuel the raw and heavy sounds
of the future, sending rock lovers into a state
of delirium.
Warped
are a damn fine Aussie outfit, so be sure to send
your support their way today.
