THE MADNESS IS TOO PURE by MAIDA VALE


Psychedelic blues rock that would be jam rock if the songs didn’t have such driving, crunchy through-lines. And if it didn’t take so many left turns, constantly morphing and surprising the ear. Oh, and if it weren’t all female. Yeah, ladies CAN do classic rock style guitar work.

This is the band’s second album, and if it doesn’t make you want to see them live you just don’t like rock guitar.

RIYL: Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult’s album tracks (not their hits), Black Mountain.
And check out the video. Black Sabbath era Ozzy would have killed for a vid like that.
