SGCT is a new group
from Dortmund that mostly take classic blues rock tracks and transform them
into something totally different. Basically, they don’t use much of original
music themes on several of the songs and just steal the lyrics. The CD opens with Wang Dangle Doodle and you
would never recognize the original. Cool music though with fuzzed out bass (for
the mid section), nice dual male and female vocals (Joe and Tonia).
Drought, an original song, changes the vibe totally with its slow
stoned blues to start and then heavy build up. It is the 1st single
from the LP. Watch the video below.
Smokestack Lightnin’ has been covered by so many bands but I doubt you
ever heard a version like this! They use
the main guitar riff line and then interject their own totally different laid
back DEAD like vibe with Tonia taking the main vocal.
White Tears starts with a recording of a blues legend talking (?) as
the guitar plays a melodic line. I think
this one is sung only by Joe and has this spacey vibe to it with different
layers of guitars. Later Tonia comes in with a backing vocal. Nice track. Don’t
Dog your Woman (T-Bone Burrnet) is fairly traditional t start but they stretch
this one out and have some fun. Done Somebody Wrong, is really different if you
compare to the Allman Brothers. Some nice slide work on this one. Bring it on
Home features dual vocals, harmonica and quite slow groove if you compare to
Led Zeppelin and a long psyched out guitar solo! If you like blues rock and
want to hear a slightly different take, give this a listen!
