Wargasm's Venom: a fun as hell, genre-splicing, relentlessly entertaining ride, and one of 2023's essential debut albums So 2023s first of two albums from Rival Sons has dropped and this is a monster and a brilliant follow up to the amazing Feral Roots. In 2021, Rival Sons celebrated the 10th anniversary of their 2011 album, Pressure and Time, by performing the landmark long player live in its entirety on the Pressure and Time Tour for the first time. They also lit up Southern California with a two-night livestream event, Rival Sons – “PAIR OF ACES” – Live from the historic Catalina Casino on Santa Catalina Island. They performed their debut LP, Before the Fire [2009], in its entirety on the first night and their self-titled EP, Rival Sons [2010], on the second. Four years after Feral Roots, and with the pandemic thankfully vanishing in the rearview mirror, Rival Sons return with Darkfighter, their seventh album. It’s not so much the sound of a reinvention as that of a band recalibrated and revitalised. All the parts that were there before remain – singer Jay Buchanan’s high-wire vocal acrobatics, Scott Holiday’s shape-shifting guitar, a rhythm section that hits hard but supple – but they sound simultaneously sharper, deeper and more intense.

Statistics

Jay Buchanan stars as Preacher who throws dynamite in verse in the Nobody Wants To Die video and features the band’s vintage cars [Scott’s 1956 Pontiac Chieftain and Jay’s 1982 Mercedes 300SD] while stunt-driving across the California desert. The film was directed by Eli Sokhn.

Rival Sons have recorded regularly, releasing seven records in ten years. "Opting to keep the sound intact and very accurate as to deliver to the listener exactly what was happening in the room when we put it down" – Holiday, talking about the album Great Western Valkyrie. [36] [37] At album number seven a band is either cutting a path or struggling to stay relevant and Darkfighter is definitely nowhere near the latter. Rival Sons for me are still far too underrated and as a live act they are unstoppable so hopefully Darkfighter breaks them to a new level and the follow up Lightbringer burts them to superior heights.

Rapture” really has the feel of the dark side of these two albums. The slow burning, soulful piece cries out in pain, it has a desperation to it that is at the bottom of well of emotion but all the while it is looking upwards at the light and how to get there. The lyrics are striving to break out of a downward spiral and the music just layers that feeling. The band has a long-standing, friendly and professional relationship with Grammy award-winning music producer Cobb, who has worked on all the band's albums and is often referred to as another member of the band. He is interested in simplicity in the recording and with the sound and vitality of real musicians in a room. [38] Cobb encourages and captures the vocal punch of the band's mainman, Jay Buchanan. "He's unbelievable, a one-take guy — done. It's such a pleasure, because then you can get wild with things. You can experiment when it doesn't take long for the singer to do his thing." [38]
