sinatra.45 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Digging this new Here Lies Man from Riding Easy Records. Between a friend's testament and the awesome description below, I was totally in. Received the album yesterday it's pretty badass. There are still a few copies of the clear /200 available. What if Black Sabbath played Afrobeat? In short, that’s the underlying vibe to the self-titled debut by Here Lies Man. The L.A. based quintet is founded and conceptualized by Marcos Garcia of Antibalas, bringing his erudite experience of West African rhythms and music to the more riff-based foundations of heavy rock. The results are an incredibly catchy and refreshing twist on classic forms, without sounding forced and trite like some sort of mash-up attempt. Here Lies Man merges and expands musical traditions organically, utilizing the talents of drummer Geoff Mann (son of jazz musician Herbie Mann) and a host of skilled musicians to make Garcia’s vision a reality.

Metal Mike Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Boy, this is pretty fucking great. Reminds me of Heavy Deeds by Sun Araw if it was rock and not drone. Edited April 13, 2017 by Metal Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
