Dead Before Dawn
There is sort of a stoner metal texture to this, but also some definite space rock in the mix. While there is definitely a NWOBHM feeling to this in some ways, it’s also not far removed from things like Sleep and Clutch. All in all, it’s a catchy tune that’s well delivered and has plenty of heavy metal thunder. It works out to a spacey kind of section at the end that has more of the progressive rock vibe to it.
(Editor's Note - Music Street Journal is set up for the allocation of albums, not singles - particularly not one-song singles. So, in the instances, like this one, where we've covered single song releases, we've had to make some adaptations for formatting. In the case of this one, just imagine both track review and overall review reading as one set of copy. )
