Year Long Disaster – Black Magic : All Mysteries Revealed


After their 2007 debut full-length, these guys didn’t live up to their name and went on tours with the Foo Fighters, The Cult and Velvet Revolver instead. They’re back now with a new album that’s apparently based on some book written by some guy about the devil and his quintessential role in the world. I’m sure it’s all very interesting but all I want to know is if they still know how to rock?

I shouldn’t have worried because other than the rather pointless intro and the one ballad on the album (“Seven Swords”), these guys know their way around a distortion pedal and a solid riff. Vocalist Daniel Davis has the perfect voice to go along with the beefed up rhythm section and together they explore seventies rock, some bluesier stuff and a bit of stoner as well, all the while still citing Led Zep as their biggest influence. Can’t really go wrong there, can ya?
Score: 7.5 out of 10
