Rival Sons - Sleepwalker

Hey there People!

I found it!!!!!!!
The band that plays good music with a touch of the 70´s but not really :) hehe.
This is awesome, totally freckin´great.

It´ll get ure toughts to Led Zeppelin and other goodies but with a new coat :)

Who are they??
Well, they are a Blues/rock band from Los Angeles, US.
Line-up: Lead Vocals: Jay Buchanan, Guitar: Scott Holiday, Bass: Robin Everhart Drums: Mike Miley History.
They were formed in 2008.

Michael Duncan on Rock Edition did an interview with Jay in april:
"Most of my idols are blues guys. This is the first rock ‘n’ roll band that I’ve ever been in. I never had an appetite to play rock ‘n’ roll. I grew up on the blues and soul music. Honestly, I always thought rock ‘n’ roll and these rock bands — the music was good — but when it came down to it so much of it seemed like foolish posturing and not very honest, except for just a few bands. You get into Led Zeppelin growing up — who doesn’t love Led Zeppelin? Or The Doors. But even with Led Zeppelin it’s like, “Aw, there’s faggy Robert Plant setting white doves free from the stage.”

Then you got Jim Morrison putting out shitty poetry and acting like he’s getting shot on stage. Tone it down, man. You know, it always goes over that line, but it has to go over that line if it’s going to ride the edge. So, I get it. I like true rock, like real honest stuff, where you go back to like Buddy Holly and the Crickets. Listen to “Not Fade Away” — there’s ghosts coming off of that vinyl. You can picture, smell and feel these kids sweating it out in this one room studio in Lubbock, Texas. If you listen to what The Jeff Beck Group did on the ‘Truth’ album, that’s serious shit — it’s really good! They were a bunch of young dudes hopped up on the blues and just swinging as hard as they could. Yeah, man. There’s a lot of good rock that’s been made."

They will release their debut album worldwide entitled “Pressure & Time” in June 2011.
