Time Signature
The storm...
Genre: traditional heavy metal / hard rock
Released in August last year, Black Trip's "Shadowline" is the follow-up album to 2014's brilliant "Goin' Under".
Like on the previous album, the Black Trip look to the late 70s and early 80s for inspiration. Thus, the listener is treated to a solid rock album with plenty of hard rocking riffage and Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden style twin lead guitar melodies. While NWoBHM is indeed still a major aspect of Black Trip's music, it seems that Thin Lizzy in particular has had a major impact on the band members when they engaged in the songwriting on this album. Just check out the vocals, lead guitars, and riffs in the song 'Danger'.
Like the predecessor, this is a brilliant album, and fans of 70s hard rock and metal should definitely check it out.
