Product Description: BLACK WATER RISING is a collection of soul baring, angst ridden, riff heavy material that is proudly anchored in the foundations of traditional Hard Rock song writing. Giant guitar driven monster riffs served up on a bed of crushing grooves with soaring melodic vocals and big hooks. Basically, NO FRILLS RIFF ROCK! Lyrically the message is socially and politically driven by the dark times we live in. With darkness seemingly growing by the day, BLACK WATER RISING is a name that fits this band like a glove. Crank up your speakers, sit back, spark a bat, and let the music tell the rest of the story...
"One of the most promising in the current crop of heavy bands. The self titled debut is a smoking show-case of huge tones and brutal riffs." - Matt Blackett - Guitar Player Magazine
Rating: - Not too shabby.....
Actually pretty impressive. I took a leap of faith buying this cd not having heard anything from these guys. The only downside to this cd is the mixing, which is great in spots, not in others. Vocals are too low and hard to understand, the cymbols are not in unison with the drum mix. With that said, the guitars sound beautiful. Alot of kick in certain areas. I'd say these guys are a cross between Dark New Day and Black Stone Cherry. Good cd.
Rating: - Love this Band! Can't wait for more.
Love it! You can actually hear the music and understand the lyrics in their songs! Hope they come to the Bay Area soon.
Rating: - This is what ROCK should be!!
LOVE it!
All I can say is buy this CD and you will know what I'm talking about!
Rating: - An Excellent Debut! One of my Favorite First Albums in a LONG Time!
I bought this album on just one pass of the 30 second clips from Amazon. I knew from that abbreviated listen that I was going to like it. I also had heard the song "Brother Go On" on Sirius radio's Octane. The album is actually more than just that one song. it is filled with 11 priceless gems that could have been released at any time over the past 30 years and been great.
I'm really tired of trying to categorize a band, so let me just say that anyone who likes Hard Rock, from the 70's ... Read More
Rating: - Incredible New Hard Rock!
Black Water Rising's 2010 debut album is a must listen for all fans of hard rock and metal. Having never heard of this band, I listened to the samples on Amazon and after only three samples songs, I was hooked. They remind me of a cross between old Stone Temple Pilots, a heavy Soundgarden, Pantera and Alice In Chains. It's the kind of hard rock and metal that no one makes anymore, but I really wish more bands would. It's been so long since I've heard a band with a lead singer that has such a great ... Read More
