Cool cover,
cool band, cool music; just three ways to describe Black Market Karma. In a
lazy, yet efficient manner I could probably summarise this band by one word:
Class. Their metallic and textured sound shines through in ‘Take What You Get',
the first song on this brilliant CD. The London based four-piece act as the
arch nemesis to shockingly over-rated bands that currently fill the charts,
developing a real guitar thrashing sound to go with lead Stan's fantastic
vocals.
The
powerful music of BMK is comparable to Oasis and Black Rebel Motor Cycle in
their approach, and their energetic style would be suited to the festival
scene. ‘It's Gone' is the highlight of the CD, although all 3 tracks are top
quality rock and roll. The three tracks are also available on the bands MySpace, where
they'll hopefully be releasing new tracks to compliment their fantastic opening
songs. Expect to see Black Market Karma up there with the best in the near
future, because they're one of the best bands I've heard in 2009 so far. |
