And that\u2019s how I first heard Moons Of Saturn. A Swedish 3-piece of a certain age (like myself and Uncle Dom), yes, they are old enough to know better, but thankfully, they decided that rock n roll keeps you young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their debut album is chock full of classic riffs, from the opening crunch of \u2018Never Get Invited\u2019 onwards. \u2018Biding My Time\u2019 is garage rock with a touch of early Alice Cooper Band, soaked in wah-wah, that I keep coming back to. \u2018She Doesn\u2019t Call Me\u2019 wouldn\u2019t shame The Damned, and throughout there are some Brian James style licks; the solos are never overdone, sharp and stylish. The riff is what counts. \u2018I Don\u2019t Mind\u2019 is another belter under 3 minutes long. \u201cIn, out, put the kettle on\u201d, as Monkfish used to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Moons of Saturn   Black velvet roses\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qHwL7w96jrw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Money And Submission\u2019 is like a lost Godfathers song, if it doesn\u2019t get you moving, consult your local pharmacist. Steeped in fine influences, Moons Of Saturn make it sound fresh thanks to their enthusiasm and way with a hook-line. \u2018Give Me Some More\u2019 is like the best Hellacopters riff, while I prefer Hakan\u2019s voice; it has more of a garage rock edge to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Black Velvet Roses\u2019 was the first song of theirs that I heard, and it still sounds great. Simple, effective and wildly catchy. \u2018Donny And Marie\u2019 is poppier, in a Ramones way, and \u2018One By One\u2019 hits you over the head before \u2018Can You Believe It\u2019 comes flying out, another hip shaker. \u2018I Got No Time\u2019 has another stabbing riff, reminiscent of Kris Dollimore, and we end with \u2018The Road\u2019, a perfectly distorted guitar tone, with added organ. You are unlikely to hear a better garage rock album this year, so check out their Facebook page for details and treat your ears to some righteous vinyl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.belugarecords.com\/collections\/beluga-records-releases\/products\/moons-of-saturn\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.belugarecords.com\/collections\/beluga-records-releases\/products\/moons-of-saturn\">Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author: Martin Chamarette<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now and again, YouTube brings a new band to your attention that is actually to your taste and has some excellent tunes.
