Admiral Sir Cloudesley Shovell 7” (Rise Above Records RISE7/123)

This is a damn cool new UK band. The 7 “ features two tracks, and the band recommends you try playing them at 33RPM even though they are suppose to be played at 45RPM. One of the tracks for sure sounds better at 33RPM! Return to Zero starts the A side and reminds me of some of the early 80s NWOBHM stuff in it’s sound. The sound production is really cool and the lead guitar mixed in a very cool way. This track really rocks out at the end. Side B is Day to Day kicks in straight off with some ripping guitar and another killer guitar riff. That is a great song. I really look forward to hearing the bands first full length. You can hear one of the tracks on the new Classic Rock Rise above Records CD that comes with the new issue (Clapton on the cover).
