Radiotones– Bound to Ride

Self styled Scottish alt.blues terrorists dish up their third album of raw and gritty blues mayhem, riding on the tail of renewed interest in the alt.blues genre thanks to the likes of young pretenders such as The White Stripes.

Imagine the vocal stylings of Tom Waits in session with the rhythm section of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band with more than a dash of blues harp and with everything louder than everything else and you'll only begin to hint at the obvious passion in this stylistic and slightly bizarre form of blues.
