UK heavy rock band Green Lung fully embraces a glorious classic sound to deliver an overdose of memorable hooks on the new darkened album “Necropolitan”.
“Dance to the grave” feels entertaining and macabre at the same time maintaining a delightful retro attitude as soaring guitars focus on monumental stomping riffage and rebellious vocals enhance a spooky catchiness.
“Black magick radio” embodies a serious occult rock affair as the Hammond successfully crafts multilayered bewitching tapestries to support a ghastly storyline and a wild rhythmic rampage.
Stories from occult London folklore thrive on “Necropolitan line” which stands out for the intense grooves skillfully generated by the sumptuous Hammond and the blazing guitar acrobatics.
“Ozymandias” relies on the timeless strength of classic heavy metal with hints of vintage proto – metal so the swaggering riffs stay at the center of the rhythmic structure while the lead guitar work reveals a refined melodic approach.
Featuring Riley Pinkerton of US fantasy doomers Castle Rat as prophetic narrator “Alostrael (Be My Babalon)” quickly acquires an epic flair through solemn vocals and mythical themes while guitars continue to build inflamed groovy dynamics with evident raw energy.
Inspired by traditional British metal and an evident passion for esoterism Green Lung proudly channels a beloved old school style depicting a haunting Victorian era throughout “Necropolitan”.
